IOM Slovakia continues to strengthen awareness of its long-standing Assisted Voluntary Return and Reintegration (AVRR) programme, which supports migrants who wish to return to their country of origin but lack the necessary residence permit or financial means to do so. The AVRR programme offers a dignified, safe, and fully voluntary solution for individuals in vulnerable situations, and all services provided under the programme are free of charge.
The Slovak Republic has taken a key step toward strengthening its migration governance. With support from the European Commission (EC) and the International Organization for Migration (IOM) the Migration Office of the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic (Migration Office) has launched the project “Technical Support for the Development of the Action Plan for the National Strategy of the Slovak Republic for the Management of Asylum and Migration.” The initiative is funded by the European Union through the Technical Support Instrument (TSI).
Access to healthcare should not become more complicated simply because someone had to leave their home. Mane, a helpline operator at EQUITA, shares what this support looks like in practice — guiding migrants through the Slovak healthcare system every day, from finding a doctor and understanding their rights to overcoming language barriers.
