Integration & Self-Reliance
DI seeks to collaborate with an information technology firm to develop a Resettlement Services Application for smartphones and related devices. It serves displaced communities as a user-friendly one-stop-shop source of information on the various services they need to settle down and successfully integrate into their new society.
DI seeks to partner with relevant stakeholders to provide wide-ranging information about affordable rental housing for newly arrived displaced families and provide them with logistics and placement support.
DI seeks to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to provide newly arrived displaced individuals with information and support to access the following services:
- Driving lessons
- Use of bus and train
The initial steps toward effective integration and assimilation include the following services, which DI seeks to facilitate and provide with the support of its partners and donors:
- English language for employment
- Resume-building and job search workshops
- Networking and job referrals
DI’s efforts range from providing information on educational and skills development opportunities for displaced individuals to mobilizing resources for project implementation, enabling displaced students to pursue degree and certificate programs of their choice.
Adjusting to new challenges in a new environment can worsen their mental health. DI aims to improve this situation by providing specific support to the most vulnerable groups, such as displaced women, youth, and children.
DI is looking to partner with law firms and law schools that are willing to offer pro bono legal services to displaced individuals who are facing language and financial barriers.
In displaced communities, youth play two major roles: 1) providing immediate manpower to earn a living and support themselves and extended families, and 2) working towards building a long-term career through acquiring higher education and well-paid employment.
DI aims to collaborate with public, private, and nonprofit stakeholders to carry out projects and programs related to the following activities and others:
- Women’s empowerment town halls
- Literary and poetry events
- Music concerts
- Displaced radio
- Displaced TV
