IMPROVING ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE AND SOCIAL WELFARE OF THE MOST VULNERABLE POPULATION IN SOUTH SERBIA

22. January 2014.

The project is implemented by the NGO Praxis from Belgrade, while it is aimed at  raising awareness about safety issues, health and discrimination among the potential healthcare seekers and local population in Pcinj disatrict, or in the municipality of Vranje, Bujanovac, Surdulica and Vladičin Han. 

The project goal will be achieved by providing direct legal assistance, information and counseling to the targeted groups, as well as by raising awareness of the relevant institutions and helthcare providers about the specific legal problems and obstacles that hinder the exercising of the rights of vulnerable groups. This will be followed by monitoring and advocacy  activities for improving the administrative procedures.  

The project will have an impact on 500 direct and 2. 500 indirect beneficiaries, whose access to the exercising of the rights to healthcare and social welfare will significantly improve. 

The implementation of the project, which will last for six months, began in November 2013 and will last until April 2014.
