QNUSHYO: ADVICE HUB OF RESPOND IN ISTANBUL

QNUSHYO operates as an Advice Hub (Hope: Advice hub for refugees) for the RESPOND project. Amongst the various projects of RESPOND, the Advice Hub is an initiative that creates a safe space for the refugees and helps them integrate in host community through various measures.

The name 'Hope' has been used intentionally to inculcate in the migrants, while in transition, a sense of empowerment and optimism to remedy the stress caused by their journey and the inhibitions they may harbor for their future. The project runs on a trial basis for the first year with support from RESPOND in Turkey and Iraq. It will later be implemented in other transit countries.
