Refugee Welcome Center

The project "Refugee Welcome Center" seeks to answer the question - How do we live together?


What is living in community? “The right to live a fully integrated life within the community - to live, to go to school, to work, to enjoy recreation etc.”

Under this definition of living together the question should not be “how do we live together”, but “how do we integrate together into a community.

The user to which it is directed this project is towards refugees who arrive in Germany, specifically families with kids, regardless of the country of origin. Due to the condition of a refugee, leaving the home country involuntarily is a difficult process since there are new challenges for which they where not prepared, for example, a new language, looking for housing etc.

The purpose of this project is to be able to gather all the necessary services for the integration of the immigrant in order to facilitate the adaptation process and they can live in community with the environment.
