Viciebsk human rights activist visited Dnipropetrovsk focal point for migrants "Help the Dnieper." According to Paul Levinau, familiarization with the experience of our Ukrainian colleagues will help Viciebsk better organize the work of human rights defenders of migrants who need protection of their rights. For persons in Belarus is becoming more and more, and the lion's share of them are just the citizens of Ukraine.

"Under the center for migrants in Dnipropetrovsk allocated former hostel tram management. The center acts as a collection point for the people who were forced to leave the Donbass. In the center at the same time can accommodate up to 200 people," – said Paul Levinau.

Human rights activist paid special attention to the living conditions of immigrants: "They provided beds, food and a place for cooking. The center employs social clubs for all ages, a sports hall and place of worship. The average period of stay in the center is about a week. During the work of the center after it has been more than 27 thousand people."

The human rights activist said that in the Dnipropetrovsk region was built five module towns: in Dnipropetrovsk, as well as in Kryvyi Rih, Nikopol, Dniprodzerzhinsk and Pavlohrad. These towns are built on the money of the German Government. In total, they can take to live two thousand settlers from almost 100 thousand registered. In general, about 60% of migrants live in rented accommodation, 30% – from relatives, and 6% – in government hostels.

Modular camp for displaced people, located in Dnipropetrovsk, resembles a building site: the same type of "trailers" – white box. Near the center has all the necessary infrastructure: school, kindergarten, clinic. Costs associated with most of the towns are local governments, themselves immigrants have to pay for only 150 UAH per person per month. Rental housing in the city will cost an order of magnitude greater.

Paul Levinau managed to communicate with the inhabitants of the center. On the living conditions of immigrants do not complain – it is better to live in a small room that looked like a coupe car than under fire at home. "People live for today – told Viciebsk human rights activist. – On their bombed-out homes in the Donbas try not to remember and plan for the future. Nevertheless, the dream to return home – when the occupation will end, and Donbas will be the Ukrainian again."
