"Work of Center for Youth Integration in 2020 was under impact of COVID 19 situation.

Extremely bad position of street involved children was additionally compromised due to pandemic situation and established measures for COVID 19. In accordance with the recommendations and security measures, we have adjusted all activities of the Center for Youth Integration to the current situation and our support to beneficiaries have continued.

During the state of emergency, we were in constant contact with beneficiaries to provide them with adequate support, respecting the security and safety measures, taking care of both, beneficiaries and the team members. Constant communication with beneficiaries was necessary in order to collected information regarding their needs, and in accordance with all security measures, we were able to distributed it in informal settlements.

We are proud of the fact that Center for Youth Integration, with the help of donors, provided and distributed over 1100 aid packages in 28 informal settlements on the territory of Belgrade.

Our donors and partners who have helped us in this action: EU through the United Nations Office for Project Services, Roma Education Fund, Save the Children, SKGO, OSCE Mission to Serbia and LDS Charities Serbia."
