On 28 February in Kyiv, Council of Europe project “Internal displacement in Ukraine: Building solutions” in cooperation with the project “Strengthening democracy and building trust at local level in Ukraine” organised a workshop on “Ensuring better inclusion and integration of internally displaced persons at local level in Ukraine”.
During the workshop, participants exchanged their views on the approaches to better integration of IDPs into host communities, as well as on the opportunities to engage IDPs into active participation in decision-making processes. Participants had an opportunity to share good practices of improving the overall level of social and economic integration of IDPs by providing internally displaced persons with adequate housing; as well as ensuring equal access to services and a decent standard of living.
The workshop was held with the participation of city mayors, representatives of local self-government bodies, national associations of local authorities, as well as the Government of Ukraine and other organizations.
