Sammanfattning
In 2004 the law of free movement was introduced in the EU. The free movement
offers an alluring possibility for the citizens of EU, but also challenges.
A few years later, non-governmental organizations started to notice a new
group of people visiting their social activities; EU-migrants in search of employment.
But the help that was being offered was not suited for that community.
The lack of support aimed towards this group was the main reason to
start Crossroads, the advice and support center for EU-migrants. Cooperation
between NGOs and the authorities have been necessary to start Crossroads,
as well as a solid preparatory work. What kind of help is the group in
need of? How’s the balance between basic needs and counselling and what
is the result of Crossroads working method? From being a pioneer project to
become an established operation, Crossroads represent a unified desire to
identify solutions and good examples for social challenges in our time.
