The Humanitarian Affairs Unit constitutes a major department at FWC and it directly responds to the needs of vulnerable populations, with emphasis on asylum seekers and refugees. The Unit offers direct services to these populations, and also advocates and raises awareness on related issues among stakeholders and the general public. The main projects implemented by the Unit are the UNHCR funded project which provides legal aid and social support to asylum seekers and refugees under the project name Strengthening Asylum; the Unit for the Rehabilitation of Victims of Torture (URVT) operating the UNVFVT project, which offers services and rehabilitation to victims of torture, who are asylum seekers and refugees. In addition, the Unit implements and participates in various related research projects such as the project examining the Inclusion/Exclusion of Refugees in the Cypriot Society.
