Within the scope of the project, there are three main protection mechanisms, namely Service Units, Outreach Work and a Hotline.
Service Units
Service Units are places where protection activities for refugees will be executed directly.
In total, there are 5 services units, based in Ankara, Denizli, Eskişehir and two in Istanbul. Within the service units, various activities such as the provision of information, awareness-raising events, case management and counseling are conducted for both individuals and groups.
If you need any of the services provided in the scope of the project, you can directly contact the Service Units.
Outreach work
Outreach work is carried out in order to provide support services for the purpose of the project, mainly in areas where Service Units are not available or in areas where Service Units are not accessible.
Outreach workers reach out to key refugee groups, inform them about their work, identify cases and make referrals to other relevant institutions.
Various project partners and cooperating institutions provide information about sexual and reproductive health and legal assistance regarding international protection and access to diverse support mechanisms.
Furthermore, they offer capacity building and case management for victims of violence and they provide guidance upon other required needs.
