The Estonian Refugee Council, in collaboration with Tallinn University and the Polish NGO Dobra Fabryka, launched a new EU-funded programme aimed at supporting the integration of refugee-background youth in Estonia. The initiative will run until October 2026 and focuses on language learning, academic support, mental health and community integration. It is open to refugee-background youth, as well as local Russian-speaking and Estonian youth.
The programme includes summer camps, Estonian language courses using Tallinn University's unobtrusive methodology, academic support, community-based activities focused on career opportunities, and mental health group sessions.
