A capacity building TACIS project launched in Ukraine


The EU funded TACIS Project “Àssistance to Legal and Administrative Reforms in Ukraine in the Sphere of Migration and Refugees Protection According to the Norms and Standards of the European Union” was launched in Ukraine in September 2004. The one-year project is carried out by the Austrian Ludwig Boltzmann Institute of Human Rights and the Migration Department of the Ministry of Interior of Lithuania for the benefit of the State Committee of Ukraine for Nationalities and Migration. A plan of actions, designed by the project partners during the preparatory phase, is focused on capacity building and aims to support Ukrainian officials working in the field of asylum.

In a series of seminars and workshops with a specific focus on European best practice in the field of asylum Austrian, Lithuanian and Ukrainian experts will exchange their experience and will search for appropriate solutions to open questions in the context of Ukraine.
