The spaces of Slovene Philanthropy in Ljubljana, Maribor and Logatec are not aimed just towards solving acute life situations of the users but represent a safe spot for all migrants, asylum seekers and persons with international protection. The Daily Centre for Migrants Programme is open: in Ljubljana Mon-Fri from 9am to 5pm, in Maribor from 10am to 6pm, in Logatec Mon-Wed from 10am to 6pm and Thu-Fri from 8am to 4pm.
The aim of the Programme is to assist with integration (linguistic and cultural) into the local or Slovenian environment through organising free time.
The specific aims of the Programme are:
- Ensuring a safe space for socializing and various activities,
- Preserving social activity of asylum seekers despite institutional care, persons with international protection and other migrants who are experiencing long-term unemployment,
- Expanding the social network of migrants,
- Informal learning,
