Legal Work

We arrive in big cities stimulated by work opportunities, many of us, and in the meantime, things happen.

Some are scammed and get lost along the way, others are victims of human trafficking, people trying to escape difficult situations. All these people are abandoned on the streets, and just a short walk reveals how poorly inclusion planning works in large cities, since it's preferable to do nothing and wait for the inevitable, instead of organizing the workload and offering opportunities for autonomy, so that no one has to beg to survive.

In the case of refugees, we force them to beg to survive after they have already survived, and that dehumanizes them.

It´s a delicate situation, treated with no finesse.

Let me remind all organizations and foundations whose activity revolves around people in vulnerable situations, the first part of Article 25 of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights:

Everyone has the right to a standard of living adequate for the health and well-being of himself and of his family, including food, clothing, housing, and medical care and necessary social services, and the right to security in the event of unemployment, sickness, disability, widowhood, old age, or other lack of livelihood in circumstances beyond his control.

Stop dehumanizing!
