REINTEGRATION SUPPORT
ECF helps eligible returnees move from arrival toward family reconnection, greater stability, practical skills, livelihoods and renewed participation in community life.
AFTER ARRIVAL
Returning home can bring relief, but it may also create new questions around family, accommodation, health, income and education. Reintegration begins by understanding the returnee’s circumstances and identifying realistic next steps.
Reintegration is not one-size-fits-all.
Support is shaped around the returnee’s circumstances, identified needs and the assistance or referrals available.
REINTEGRATION PATHWAY
Each return is different. ECF uses a simple pathway to understand immediate needs, reconnect people with support and help identify realistic next steps toward stability and independence.
STEP 01
Confirm immediate safety, identify urgent needs and understand the returnee’s family and economic situation.
STEP 02
Support family communication and connect health, protection or specialist needs to appropriate services.
STEP 03
Identify existing skills, training needs, employment options or a viable livelihood pathway.
STEP 04
Review progress, identify barriers and adjust support where programme resources allow.
Important: The type and level of assistance will depend on the circumstances of each case and the programme resources available. Where direct assistance is not appropriate, ECF may identify a suitable referral pathway.
NEED SUPPORT OR WANT TO HELP?
Submit a support request so ECF can review the circumstances and determine whether assistance or an appropriate referral may be available.
