Destination country/region: Polish-Belarusian border, Poland
Period: December 2021
Short description: Between Christmas and New Year we supported the local initiative Grupa Granica with donations in kind and a small support team.
Project Progress:
Several weeks before the mission, CADUS was already in contact with Grupa Granica to determine the need for specific medical and communication equipment. During the Christmas holidays, the group needed not only material support but also medical professionals. A Medic and another CADUS staff member headed to the border to support the local initiative there.
Our Medic was mainly on site to be able to medically examine refugees hiding in the forest there trying to get across the border when alerted by the local network.

Vier Monate Emergency Response Balkan – Ein Abschlussbericht
Unsere Emergency Response in Sarajevo, Bosnien ist nach vier Monaten beendet. Unser Projektkoordinator fasst die Situation, die Herausforderungen und unseren Einsatz vor Ort noch einmal zusammen.
Tag der Menschenrechte – auch auf der Balkanroute?
Den Tag der Menschenrechte, vor genau 70 Jahren durch die UN verabschiedet, nehmen wir zum Anlass um auf die Situation Geflüchteter auf der sogenannten Balkanroute aufmerksam zu machen.
Kleine Wunde, leider große Wirkung
Christoph, unser Fotograf in Sarajevo, hat uns eine kleine bewegende Geschichte aus dem Alltag unserer Emergency Response geschickt: wie eine kleine Wunde zu einem großen Problem werden kann.
