This plan is based on Rapid Market Assessments, which are developed and implemented with local governments. This plan allows mapping (self-) employment opportunities in the city’s main economic sectors with a specific focus on those with growth potential, identifying labor demand requirements in terms of both technical and soft skills, and identifying barriers and bottlenecks that hinder market access for refugees and migrants.
The project supports the start-up and operation of Points of Attention and Orientation to provide attention and response to the needs and questions of the refugee population, migrants, and in some cases, internally displaced persons.
These Care Centers provide services related to:
– Information and guidance on the routes, mechanisms, and processes available for effective access to public services and rights (health, education, legal assistance).
– Information on different procedures that include, among others: access to the asylum procedure, migratory regularization, access to the PEP (Special Permit of Permanence), extemporaneous registration of children born in Venezuela, civil registration, etc.
– Identification of persons of concern with specific protection needs and information on locally available specialized services.
– Referral of identified cases to institutions or organizations that provide services in response to their needs.
