Zilele acestea a avut loc la Košice prima întâlnire a unui consorțiu din Europa Centrală și de Est format din organizații care lucrează cu persoane fără adăpost pentru a dezvolta în comun servicii sociale și de sănătate integrate.

În următorii 3 ani, Casa Ioana - România, Fundația pentru Sănătate și Dezvoltare Socială - Bulgaria, Serviciul de Caritate Maghiar al Ordinului Malta (HCSOM) - Ungaria, Fundația Housing First - Polonia, Institutul Metropolitan de Cercetare Budapesta - Ungaria, Fundația DEDO - Slovacia și All for the Family - Slovacia vor dezvolta servicii inovatoare în acest domeniu.

Această colaborare unică este susținută de Comisia Europeană și este inițiată și condusă de Fundația DEDO, care va implementa proiectul SOLACE CEE în două orașe, Košice și Prešov. În total, Comisia Europeană sprijină 4 proiecte în cadrul apelului pentru inovare socială, în Slovacia un proiect asemănător a primit pentru sprijin pentru a doua oară din partea Comisiei.

„Scopul nostru este de a crea servicii sociale și de sănătate integrate în ambele orașe, venind în completarea abordării complexe de a pune capăt fenomenului persoanelor fără adăpost din rândul familiilor – de la locuință, la suport și găsirea unui loc de muncă – pe care o implementăm în Slovacia de Est”, a afirmat Alena Vachnová. „În munca noastră, încercăm să folosim metode testate pe care le aducem și le implementăm în Slovacia, cu scopul de a pune capăt fenomenului persoanelor fără adăpost, nu doar de a gestiona fenomenul.”

Joint Venture

This Erasmus + funded project aims to build a fairer and more inclusive society through new ways of working together, involving entrepreneurs, people at risk of exclusion, NGOs and the business world.

The central focus is to create entrepreneurial teams to support people at risk of exclusion and provide them with tools to generate original business ideas and bring the concept to fruition in an efficient and straightforward way.

The six partners from five countries - UK, Spain, Bulgaria, Romania, Italy - are all NGOs and business consultants specialising in developing training materials, entrepreneurship and business incubation, including working with people from disadvantaged backgrounds.

During the 30 months of the project a series of training materials and an incubation process for potential entrepreneurs will be developed and tested on 9 new business concepts/ideas.

There will be opportunities for companies and business professionals, trainers, mentors, NGOs and future entrepreneurs to participate in the project at different stages. The project materials will be available as a free open resource for wide use.

Domestic violence

Domestic violence, also known as domestic violence (abbreviated DV), domestic abuse, family abuse, marital/conjugal abuse or intimate partner violence (abbreviated VI), can be broadly defined as an abusive behavioural pattern of one or both partners in an intimate relationship such as marriage, cohabitation, family, friendship or cohabitation. Domestic violence takes many forms such as physical assault (actual or threatened), sexual abuse, emotional abuse, excessive control, dominance, intimidation, stalking, passive/concealed abuse (e.g. neglect) and economic deprivation.

How women in Romania lived through the pandemic (22.01.2021)

Economic and social tensions and measures that limit people's mobility and require them to spend much longer in the home have led to an increase in domestic violence, the majority of victims of which are still women. Both in Romania and in many other countries of the European Union and around the world, the number of cases of domestic violence has increased during the Covid-19 crisis, which is reflected in the number of complaints registered with the police and the number of calls to emergency services or to the counselling and support services offered by non-governmental organisations.

The link between money and domestic violence (14.01.2021)

We often don't make a direct connection between money and domestic violence, but financial education can play a powerful role in a survivor's story and help her get out of the abusive relationship or may even serve to prevent abuse in the first place.

During the pandemic, women and children are at greater risk of domestic violence (10.12.2020)

In the context of isolation at home, limited contact with members of the social network, work at home, school closures, lack of leisure facilities and financial insecurity, it has been observed that family relationships tend to become increasingly strained, increasing the vulnerability of children and women and the risk of being exposed to domestic violence.
