The UNHCR France published on October 8 its latest report which highlighted the results of consultations with 78 refugees and asylum seekers in France.

The report showcases how their actions and voluntary work have contributed to integrate newly arrived migrants, to support the most vulnerable, and increase active engagement in society.

The report features the CoE’s European Qualifications Passport for Refugees which identified refugees with a healthcare background to contribute to fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.

To continue refugee participation in addressing the pandemic in France, refugees with qualifications in the health care sector are invited to contact the project team via the project website (www.coe.int/eqpr) or by sending an e-mail to [email protected] to prepare an application for a possible evaluation.
