  • a Guide on How to Start an Entrepreneurial Project and Come from Idea to Action
    - a guide on how to start an entrepreneurial project and come from idea to action was a three-year project about entrepreneurship for young people with refugee backgrounds. The project was implemented and developed in a partnership between DRC Danish Refugee Coun- cil and Foreningen Roskilde Festival between 2018 and 2020. Contents The project consisted of professional workshops on entrepreneurship, mentorships by voluntary business professionals for all the participants, and the building of partnerships between other organizations and municipalities. Results CO:LAB was a big success, and overall 36 entrepreneurs with refugee backgrounds completed the project. Of these, 23 succeeded in starting their own business because of the aid they received from the CO:LAB project. 65% succeeded in starting their own business, and 95% were in jobs or taking an education at the end of the project. You can read more about how you can succeed in helping refugees and others into becoming entrepreneurs in this e-book.

We must live by these values, 23,853 persons* protect and defend them,” stated Commissioner Johansson in her speech reporting pushbacks before the European Parliament on 19 January 20211. The beginning of 2021, however, did not give much hope to people stranded at the EU’s external to BiH since May borders that protection of their rights would take priority over protection of 2019 borders. While borders are protected, people seeking protection continue being deprived of their basic rights. With almost non-existent legal pathways for onward movement, living in dire conditions and facing uncertainty, they are left with no other option than to use clandestine routes, risking their lives and safety2. 1 European Commission, “Commissioner Johansson's speech at the European Parliament Plenary on the humanitarian situation of refugees and migrants at the EU's external borders”, https://ec.europa.eu/commission/commissioners/2019- 2024/johansson/announcements/commissioner-johanssons-speech-european-parliament-plenary-humanitarian- situation-refugees-and_en, 19 January 2021 2 The Guardian, "Croatia: landmine from 1990s Balkan wars kills asylum seeker”, https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/mar/07/croatia-landmine-from-1990s-balkans-war-kills-asylum-seeker, 7 March 2021 | 1 On January 11, the Council of Europe Commissioner for

  • Diaspora Programme Annual Grand Meeting for Afghan and Somali Diaspora in Denmark
    with the support of the DIASPORA PROGRAMME ANNUAL GRAND MEETING REPORT DIASPORA PROGRAMME ANNUAL GRAND MEETING FOR AFGHAN AND SOMALI DIASPORA IN DENMARK COPENHAGEN 27.10.2018 All photos by Jamil Ghafuri ANNUAL GRAND MEETING 2018 Conference report 3 OVERVIEW OF THE ANNUAL GRAND MEETING Danish Refugee Council’s Diaspora Programme aims to facilitate, support and enhance the role of diasporas as agents of humanitarian assistance and development in their country of origin. Via Diaspora Project Support (DiPS), the Diaspora Programme provides direct support to diaspora organisations. DiPS is a Danida-funded project that offers financial and technical support to diaspora-led projects implemented in Somalia and Afghanistan and building evidence-based knowledge of the value of diaspora engage- ment in countries of origin. In addition to funding for diaspora-led relief, rehabilitation and development projects, DiPS offers trainings to improve the diaspora organisations’ capacity on subjects such as developing and managing projects, and regularly consults its elected diaspora Advisory Boards on issues related to programming, strategy and advocacy as well as the assessment of incoming project applications. In line with our mandate, the Diaspora Programme organised the “Annual Grand Meeting” on October 27, 2018 at Korsgadehallen in Copenhagen. Hosted by DRC with support from Danida, the Annual Grand Meeting is a platform to meet and exchange ideas for representatives from the Afghan and Somali diaspora in Denmark. In addition to presen- tations by organisations that have received support from DiPS and other interventions, elections were held for the Afghan and Somali Advisory Boards. Focusing on the theme “Then and Now”, the Annual Grand Meeting brought together a panel of individuals from various institutions that have followed and influenced the Diaspora Programme since its inception.

After a while, Hussein decided to make the dangerous trip to Lebanon in the hope of building a better life for his family there, while his family remained in Syria. Hussein worked for several months on a construction site in Lebanon, while Hussein’s wife and five children moved to rural Damascus, where Hussein eventually joined them.

  • Achievements of Local and International Organizations in Response to COVID-19 As of 3 August 2020 OCHA • to Help the World'
    Achievements of local and international organizations in response to COVID-19 as of 3 August 2020 OCHA • To help the world’s most vulnerable countries fight the pandemic, OCHA coordinated a US$2 billion COVID-19 Global Humanitarian Response Plan (GHRP) launched on 25 March 2020. The Response Plan was revised in early May to include a $6.71 billion appeal and an updated global plan, with a series of annexes, to fight the coronavirus in fragile countries. On 16 July, an updated plan was released, along with annexes, to include a $10.3 billion appeal to fight the pandemic in the most vulnerable and low- income countries. • Funding this plan will help to ensure that humanitarian agencies can maintain their ongoing emergency work. Implementing the plan requires tight coordination, strong fundraising, and a massive effort to ensure that ongoing emergency assistance continues for those people around the world who need it most. • OCHA is helping aid groups and Governments to coordinate the COVID-19 humanitarian response on all fronts to ensure it is swift, coherent and effective. For OCHA, this involves mobilizing finances, assessing needs, developing response plans, and advocating to reach people in need. OCHA has set up a COVID-19 response team to drive these efforts, and to support and boost the UN system-wide response. • Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator Mark Lowcock has released US$104 million from the UN Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF) as of 5 June 2020 to help fund efforts to contain the virus in vulnerable countries.
