DRC is the leading NGO in Denmark working with integration of refugees and migrants. With 80 employees and 7,000 volunteers, DRC Integration is responsible for professional networks servicing municipalities, regions, ministries, institutions, private companies, and the voluntary sector.
A dignified life for all is the overall vision for our integration activities. Hence, we support and enable refugees and migrants to be part of a community and to enjoy equal rights and opportunities. We see language proficiency, employment, participation in civil society, and an inclusive society as pivotal for the quality of life, empowerment and future possibilities of refugees and migrants.
DRC Integration consists of the following departments:
- Employment and Children & Families provide professional integration services for municipalities, such as employment promoting activities for refugees and psychosocial interventions and support for vulnerable children and families.
- DRC Volunteer supports 7,000 volunteers organised in local volunteer groups all over Denmark and provides counselling for refugees and migrants. The meeting with volunteers facilitates a good start for newcomers in the local community.
- Knowledge & Development organises conferences, seminars, and courses about integration, and works with innovation and development of new methods and approaches. Also provides knowledge and tools for working with refugees via Knowledge Center for Vulnerable Refugees, which produces analyses and evaluations, various publications, and carries out training and counselling targeted professionals.
