Salvati Copiii [Save the Children] Romania warns about the risks the refugee children from Ukraine are facing, including human trafficking.
The Salvati Copiii teams working at the border checking points and refugee centres have more than 45 experts (coordinators, psychologists, educators, social assistants) and 56 volunteers, some of them speaking Ukrainian.
"What is urgent now is to provide fast humanitarian assistance, information and emotional support, both at the border and at the centres where they are accommodated. And children coming from the childcare centres in Ukraine are even more vulnerable," said the representatives of the organization.
They pointed out Salvati Copiii is the only NGO present in the two refugee camps in Siret and Radauti, working especially to help the children.
The children who took refugee from Ukraine have been received at the border with staple foods, hygiene products, clothes, shoes, pampers, pacifiers, baby bottles, baby strollers, hot water thermoses, toys, blankets and other products, while the mothers received free of charge phone cards from the mobile phone companies, emotional support, translation and counseling about the asylum procedure, travel means, map and address of the asylum seekers centres etc.
