The sources of funding are public (EU, Council of Europe) and own resources (we give online training to development workers and volunteers). RESPECT acts mainly through concrete projects. We collaborate with organizations all over Europe and we have a few partners with whom we have collaborated in several projects (IMIR www.imir.de, CEIPES www.ceipes.org).
Mission and Objectives

RESPECT (Refugee Sponsorship Programme Enhancing Communities Together) Refugiados is an NGO working to raise awareness among international youth about refugees and refugees’ issues, encouraging activism and further empower refugee children and communities through letter and cultural exchange. We work also intensively in capacity building, increasing the skills and knowledge of local NGOs and volunteers in developing countries as well as creating booklets, leaflets and other PR materials that we distribute among schools and organisations all over Europe. We also prepare and give trainings to the humanitarian community through online courses on development cooperation, NGOs and refugee issues.

Main Projects / Activities

Our activities are focused mainly on awareness raising, education (online trainings) and letter exchange. As part of our awareness raising campaign activities, our ongoing and concluded projects are: 1.Training on Psycho-Social Needs of Refugees -
The project aims to increase the quality for training activities on psycho-social needs of refugees by sharing knowledge and experiences and producing a website for dissemination among several European organizations. 2.Awareness Raising through Comic Books - The purpose of this project was to promote a multicultural society, tolerance and activism by spreading awareness in a fun way about refugees and refugee issues amongst European children, teenagers and young adults. A comic book dealing with different aspects of a refugee/asylum seeker’s life was prepared. 3.European youth training - In partnership with the Council of Europe and the European Youth Foundation, we have launched a project focused on Youth European organizations aiming to provide high quality training courses on soft skills and management abilities for international projects. 4.European Awareness Raising Campaign on Refugees - This campaign has been taken place under the “All Different-All Equal” project from the Council of Europe, promoting social values and understanding among people and cultures. Together with our partners we have produced a very interesting material which explains children and youth, in general, about the reality of a refugee. Our online training programme consists in courses in NGO management, soft skills, becoming a professional trainer, conflict resolution, refugees and internally displaced persons, repatriation. Its aim is to help improve the knowledge and skills of NGOs staff to work in development cooperation and the humanitarian aid field. Our third main area of activity is the letter exchange programme, which consists in introducing classes of non-refugee students (from Europe) to a class of refugee students (especially from Africa) of similar age and academic level by pen-pal letter exchange.
