Results

  • 36 families were provided with information about the procedure for obtaining certain rights, such as the right of social welfare, right of health care, education or vocational training possibilities, micro business possibilities, as well as other information based on the needs of the returnee
  • 28 children were included in the education system after their return to Macedonia and they have continued their education. They were provided with the necessary school supplies
  • 35 returnees have started small businesses
  • 8 returnees have received vocational training and have finished it successfully
  • The living conditions in the homes of the returnees were really bad, and therefore in some cases it was necessary to do а reconstruction or adaptation of a room for living, as well as providing the basic household appliances.
