Since the 1st of March, 2019, Commissariat for Refugees and Migration took over the Children’s Corners in the reception centers in Kikinda and Vranje.
Up to March, the Children’s Corners were ran by SCRM’s partners, namely UNICEF and Danish Refugee Council in RC Vranje and SOS Children’s Villages in RC Kikinda.
From November 2018 to February 2019, SCRM staff competent to work with children went through a series of trainings during which they acquired additional knowledge and skills necessary to run the Children’s Corners. Training included creative workshops for children, support in styding and homework, and the protection of children and their rights.
Additional training of SCRM staff is envisaged in near future, in order for all the children’s favorite spots within the Commissariat’s centers to function smoothly and efficiently.
