🌍🏠 A community meeting was recently held by IOM Bulgaria at the Safe Zone in RRC Sofia – Ovcha Kupel, bringing together unaccompanied asylum-seeking children and members of the team.
💬 Community meetings create a space where social workers and children can come together to talk about everyday topics – from house rules and living together, to building a calm and safe environment for everyone.
⚖️ At the latest session, a legal expert from the mobile team also joined, answering questions and providing helpful information to the children.
🤝 These regular gatherings help build trust, encourage open dialogue, and support a sense of community in the Safe Zone.
🇪🇺 This activity was implemented in the framework of the projects "Support for Unaccompanied Minors Accommodated in Safe Zones" and "Support for asylumseekers in Bulgaria" funded by the National Programme of Bulgaria under the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund 2021-2027 with the financial support of the European Union.
