Programmes currently active in this country
Economic recovery
We support displaced and crisis-affected people in rebuilding their livelihoods and securing sustainable incomes by helping them enter the labor market, start small businesses, and establish agricultural activities.
Counselling Programme
The purpose of the counselling programme of the Estonian Refugee Council is to provide displaced people with important information and need-based assistance, and to support refugees' adaptation and independence.
Community Programme
The Community Programme contributes to the creation of more complete and stronger communities by supporting refugees in adapting to a new society and the local or host community in involving new arrivals. To this end, we organize community events and various group activities and children's and youth camps all over Estonia.
Mental Health Programme
The purpose of the programme is to offer various activities supporting mental health, including therapies, group and individual activities, in order to increase the psychological well-being of refugees and ensure a healthier and more balanced society on a larger scale.
Education and Awareness Programme
The Education and Awareness programme raises awareness about forced migration and integration by highlighting the new possibilities and challenges accompanying migration.
Advocacy and Protection Programme
In addition to providing services, the Estonian Refugee Council also actively provides advocacy and protection monitoring. We stand for the rights and well-being of refugees at local, national and international levels. We consistently collect feedback from refugees on good practices, bottlenecks, and systemic violations. If we can help solve the problems of refugees, we will.
Estonian Refugee Council provides services to refugees that support their integration in the Estonian society and that enhance their self-reliance. We offer refugees high-quality, relevant and up-to-date information based on their personal needs to help them make informed decisions about rebuilding their lives in a new country.
