Description

 

Research shows that people who came to Poland from Belarus lack a place where they can receive support, act together and cultivate their national culture. They lack opportunities to learn the Polish language effectively, including conversation with native speakers. Refugees and migrants experience isolation and fear of establishing relationships with Polish people. Our Association is a young organisation – we need support to develop and improve the competencies of the team, as well as expanding the contacts base of organisations with more experience. The main goal of the project is to facilitate the integration of people from Belarus in Poland. We want to activate these people, help them find work, counteract their exclusion and discrimination. As part of the project, we will launch a safe and friendly place for people from Belarus called Belarusian CZABOR Club, where they will be spending time and cultivating their traditions. We will run Polish language and conversation courses for our beneficiaries under the slogan: ''Polish – a piece of cake''. We will hold a series of concerts entitled ''Hearts in exchange for Hearts'', aimed at strengthening the positive image of immigrants in Polish society. We will also use the grant to develop our Association – acquiring new knowledge and partners among experienced organisations. This will help us increase the number of beneficiaries, as well as supporters and partners of our organisation. We will become more recognisable in the community, which will contribute to new paths and opportunities for further development.
