Caritas Serbia / Caritas North Macedonia

Caritas Serbia is a humanitarian organisation of the Catholic Church and a member of the international Caritas network with national associations in more than 160 countries worldwide. Since 1995, Caritas Serbia has provided humanitarian aid and assistance to people in need, regardless of their nationality, religion or beliefs.

Within the project „Return to Serbia and North Macedonia", counselling centres were established in 2017 in Belgrade and in 2022 in Skopje, which provide counselling, orientation and in-kind support to returnees, regardless of whether they were asylum seekers, tolerated refugees or persons without valid residence permits in Germany prior to their return. In addition, the Caritas Counselling Centres make referrals to other local or international organisations which provide in-kind aid, employment programmes and vocational training opportunities for returnees.

The Caritas Counselling Centres also work directly and closely with various return counselling centres, authorities and institutions in Germany – both, pre- and post-departure – to facilitate and accelerate the return reintegration process.

All services provided by the Caritas Counselling Centres are free of charge. The project is sponsored by the Ministry for Children, Youth, Family, Equality, Refugees and Integration of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia.
