Bridging the gap between displaced people and decision-makers
Our Mission
At Opora, our primary goal is to promote evidence-based structural solutions for complex problems. We are thinking outside the box about crisis management that would promote scenario-based long term solutions.
Our efforts began with assisting displaced people from Ukraine, whose temporary protection status opened new possibilities for integrating conflict-affected individuals into the labour market, educational system, healthcare system, and other essential areas of society. We recognized the need for producing grounded knowledge by providing unique experiences and expertise.
While we appreciate the positive outcomes that the EU Temporary Protection Directive has generated and the steps taken by Dutch/European institutions to implement it, we recognize that there are still significant challenges on the ground. As such, we have established a community of experts to collaborate with institutions to gather reliable data, identify and address these challenges, and work together towards mutually beneficial solutions.
