From May 19 to May 26, project participants from 4 countries (Ukraine, Georgia, Armenia and the North Caucasus) met in Kiev to study the experience of NGOs in Ukraine on issues of working with IIDPs from conflict areas. A total of 16 key participants took part in the trip, 4 coordinators and project director from Germany.
During the trip the participants had an opportunity to get acquainted with the work of 11 organizations of Ukraine. The meetings were organized at a high level both in the working and cultural-educational part. They harmoniously complemented each other.
Integration, resettlement, payment of benefits and compensation, programs for building peace and restoring confidence are the main issues that were discussed at the meetings.
This educational trip showed the need for cooperation not only on the ground, but also between countries that have similar problems and interests.
Thanks to this program, participants learned that questions of peace and the restoration of trust are one of the main tasks in the solution of which civil society must take an active part.
