Description

The current project aims to provide support to Ukrainian refugees who enter the country at the Siret border crossing point (Suceava county). The support provided by the project involves psycho-emotional support and products of strict necessity (food and hygienic sanitary products). The implementation of this project is necessary and falls under the category of quick response type grants, because SAMR is the only organization active for this purpose within the Siret border crossing point (Suceava county). The psychoemotional support will be provided by a specialist (social worker or psychologist), a translator (people who will be remunerated from the project budget) and 2 volunteers (contribution in kind from the organization). Concretely, the project proposes the following actions: welcoming refugees and supporting them in a specially designed space that allows an efficient assessment of their needs and providing food, sanitary products and psycho-emotional support and/or supporting refugees in buses. The children will benefit from relaxation activities and games to distract them from the war. The specialist involved (social worker/psychologist) will intervene in this crisis situation in order to mitigate the consequences of the experience
they went through using specific intervention methods and techniques. The translator has an essential contribution because he makes these activities possible. Once the individual/family needs are identified, the project team mobilizes and in collaboration with the local authorities/ISU and other NGOs identifies solutions to the needs: accommodation, transport, temporary/permanent living space, temporary/permanent workplace, and so on. The refugees who enter the country in an organized way by buses choose to transit the country and go to other countries in Europe. In these buses, the project team will be allowed access to provide medical, psycho-emotional, food and hygienic-sanitary support for adults and children.
