Project completed
Afghanistan Hazaras Culture and Solidarity Association was established in 2012 in Trabzon. The association works for the rights of refugees, problems related to refugee children, refugee women and elderly refugees as they constitute a risk group. In this context, it offers consultancy, referral, case management and interpreting services. AHCSA has organised many courses in the field of non-formal education and social cohesion in cooperation with local authorities so far.
About the project
The overall objective of the project is to improve the socio-economic situation of Afghan refugees and contribute to social cohesion efforts through protection services, information seminars, coordination with institutions, language and vocational courses and intercultural communication activities.
As part of the project, counselling, referral, interpreting and case management services will be provided to refugees in Trabzon, Afyonkarahisar, Giresun and Gümüşhane. Seminars will be organized to inform Afghans on their rights and obligations, child neglect and child abuse. Social and cultural activities (special days and trips to highlands) will be realized for special days and weeks to ensure social and cultural cohesion with the objective to break barriers, overcome prejudices and get to know each other, also to improve the psychological wellbeing of both communities.
