SOLWODI - Help for women

The counseling center of the SOLWODI Return and Reintegration Program offers both non-binding initial counseling and continuing counseling for single or single-parent women in the context of return.

The aim of the program is to enable single and single-parent women to return and to support their economic and social new start. In cooperation with local non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the program offers holistic as well as individually tailored counseling and support for women in Germany and in the destination countries.

The program offers individual support for return and reintegration. This support can be in the form of contacts to our partner organizations in the target countries or financial. Financial support after return is possible for e.g.:
• vocational training
• further education
• rent
• school costs of the children
• orientation
• internship
• an income-generating activity

Whether and to what extent financial support is possible is clarified in individual discussions with the SOLWODI advisors in Germany.

SOLWODI also offers a low-threshold business management course in which women can develop a concept for a business idea in their country of origin.

Admission criteria
• single or single-parent woman
• special need due to difficult life situation, vulnerability

The offer is free of charge and exclusively available to women. Consultations take place in German, English, French, Russian, Spanish, Turkish and Albanian. For other languages, interpreters are consulted as needed.
