Projects
Connecting People
Sponsorship project for unaccompanied refugee minors
Young refugees who were forced to leave their home countries because of war and
persecution have to contend with multiple problems in Austria: loss of their family, traumatic experiences
in their home country, long periods of unexplained resident status, forced inactivity, unknown living
environment in Austria. Connecting People is trying to provide emotional support to those young people.
By building a stable relationship between the godmother / godfather and a young refugee, security,
guidance and support can be offered to the young person.
