Moldova

Caritas Czech Republic has been operating in Moldova since 2004. We are dedicated to developing social and health services, and efficient waste management. In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, we have expanded our work to include humanitarian aid to provide for the basic needs of Ukrainian refugees.

Humanitarian aid for Ukrainian refugees

From the first days of the war, we have been involved in helping refugees from Ukraine. We have equipped 12 refugee accommodation centres and increased medical and psychosocial services availability. We have also supported displaced Ukrainians through direct financial support, enabling long-term financial self-sufficiency and helping them rebuild a decent life.

Development of social and healthcare services

We have opened 11 home care centres in Moldova. Thanks to the development of telemedicine, we are increasing access to healthcare, especially in remote regions. We have also trained over 5,000 doctors, nurses and social workers. We are involved in preparing legislative changes to introduce an efficient home care and social services model in the country.

Efficient waste management

Moldova's rural regions still need help with illegal landfills and the need for an effective waste management system. We are helping local institutions with functional and sustainable waste management.

Training teachers and NGO workers in Moldova

Young people in the region of Gagauzian in southern Moldova struggle with maintaining an interest in politics, elections and decision-making processes. As well, local youth’s awareness of EU principles and the advantages of being an EU member is quite low. To rectify the situation, a total of thirty teachers from nine high-schools and one university, along with employees of eight non-governmental organizations from South Moldova, are being trained on European values and democratic principles. Once they have completed the training, they will also become trainers, working at nine schools in the Gagauzian region.

Moldovan foster parents complete specialized training

Foster-parenting in Moldova is quite different than what we fiind in the Czech Republic.  For example, only one person of a couple can become a foster parent. The remuneration provided to foster parents by the government remains the same no matter how many children there are in a foster family and no matter what the health condition of the children is. The foster parent is entitled to this remuneration only until the child reaches 18 years of age. Besides the remuneration, each foster parent receives a one-time subsidy to cover the child’s needs.

In Gagauzia, an autonomous region in the south of Moldova, young people are versed very little in the political life and are unaware in ways to participate in it. Therefore, Caritas Czech Republic has initiated some activities there to support the development of civil society and democratic rights.
