About the project
Three main components have been identified to support mid to long-term socio-economic integration of refugees in their host communities. These components and the individual activities within them are intended to complement each other in supporting the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MoIA) and other related government agencies at the national and local levels to provide improved support to refugees and host communities while also addressing key areas of refugee need and support to foreigners in Moldova more broadly.
These include:
- improved access to the information needed on rights and services of refugees to make informed decisions;
- strengthened social and economic integration of refugees in host community families with support of civil society organizations and Local Public Administrations (LPAs);
- improved capacity of MoIA and other relevant national and local government agencies to address the needs of refugees, particularly the most vulnerable.
To the extent possible, each of these support areas aims to benefit both the refugee population as well as their host communities.
Project Development Objective (PDO)
The objective of the program is to build the capacity of the Government of Moldova to facilitate the socioeconomic integration of refugees and enhance social cohesion between refugees and host communities in collaboration with civil society organizations.
