Background:

Afghanistan continues to be in crisis after two decades of war and internal conflict, with recent events exponentially elevating the danger levels on locals to critical. This is causing families to be internally displaced escaping danger of militants as they are forced to flee their homes in search of safety due to the political insecurities and conflicts.

According to the UNHCR, there are estimated to be around 2.9 million internally displaced persons within Afghanistan*. With the current emergency situation, our legal service in Greece is seeing a colossal influx of families fleeing Afghanistan seeking refuge.

Mission:

Goodwill Caravans Emergency legal Aid service in Greece has supported tens of thousands of vulnerable refugee families feeling war and prosecution from Afghanistan over the past 6 years in finding protection and safety as well as family reunification.

Approximately 50% of those who use are services are from Afghanistan and this number is forecasted to grow exponentially. Our legal service is our flagship project; it is tasked with delivering a holistic approach to legal emergency response, guidance and assistance.

Our legal service supports families for a plethora of legal cases including but not limited to:

Family reunification

Emergency detention release & shelter

Asylum claims

Appealing deportations

Second rejection appeals

Support in accessing healthcare systems
