Since 2000 we have worked with many communities: - larger or smaller, homogenous or diverse, people who live together or people sharing common problems. We have seen communities struggle to survive, we have seen disintegrating communities and united ones.

We work with the vulnerable communities to find and support those specific groups, whose social status and living conditions are far worse then the standarts of the rest. These people are the primary target of our programme. These are the most vulnerable.

But we also work with the larger communities, as the status of the poorest and weakest community members define the status of the whole. And our job is to bring the stronger and the weaker together and support a process where they unite and help the most vulnerable people in becoming less vulnerable. This process benefits all.
But who the most vulnerable are?

At the end of the 80-ies most of the societies in the region of Central and South-East Europe have faced and still face hard periods of transition, varying in every country, challenging the survival of people and communities.

Wars and economical crises, social changes and transitionleft their strongest effects on many people but especially those, uprooted from their original homes, internally displaced persons, refugees or migrants; people living in isolated and distant communities; those who fell off the basic services, and all people,facing various forms of social exclusion: handicapped people, older people, vulnerable ethnic minorities, people with TB, immigrants and others.
