The European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management, Christos Stylianides, together with the Minister of Labour, Employment, Veteran and Social Affairs Aleksandar Vulin and the Commissioner for Refugees and Migration Vladimir Cucic, visited reception and transit centres in Sid and Adasevci, on Friday, 15. January 2015.
 
Commissioner Stylianides toured the aid point Adasevci and inaugurated the extended child-friendly space which is used by mothers and babies for feeding and changing as well as for children to play. The new extended space now offers even more room for mothers and children to rest and obtain information and advice on nutrition for their children, hygiene and safety.

Commissioner Stylianides also visited the Adasevci aid point and got acquainted with different services offered to migrants and refugees. The European Union, in cooperation with international organizations and NGOs, is providing a number of services for refugees and migrants in Adasevci including helping the Commissariat for Refugees and Migration to cover running and maintenance costs of the centre.

Following the visit, Stylianides said the entire centre and the child-friendly space were a showcase of EU solidarity and support offered to the countries of Western Balkans through EUR20 million. Part of this money has been invested in this newly opened child-friendly space.
