BARKA supported persons of 20 nationalities – 15 from the EU and 5 from outside the EU.
The majority of homeless people who’ve returned to their countries with Barka’s support are Romanians, but our team also works with clients of other nationalities, mainly Polish, Latvian, Slovak, and Ukrainian citizens. Communicating with homeless groups is made easier due to the presence of Barka leaders who are former homeless persons with many years of training and preparation from Barka.
