SUPPORT YOUR UKRAINIAN NEIGHBOUR [2022]

About This Project

September 2022 – December 2022

Summary of the project:

The JKPeV will support Ukrainian refugees in Dresden with a wide range of workshops, counselling, educational, and support services as well as several cultural events to help them find their way around, integrate, build a support system and actively participate in society and culture. Through regular meetings of local & refugee populations as well as through learning together, being creative, cooking & being active as equals, a sustainable integration into the cultural & social life of Dresden is to be encouraged. The reinforcement of civic engagement and voluntary work in connection with the reception and integration of refugees from Ukraine is a particular focus.
