My organisation

We are People in Peril Slovakia, also known as Človek v ohrození, n. o. Our organization is dedicated to providing humanitarian aid and support to those in need, both locally and globally. Through our projects and programs, we strive to make a positive impact on vulnerable communities and advocate for human rights. Since the beginning of the armed conflict in Ukraine, the organization has been providing assistance to Ukrainian refugees in Slovakia, as well as internally displaced people in Ukraine. For two years now, we have been offering psycho-social support to individuals fleeing the war in Ukraine, regardless of their age, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status. Our goal is their effective integration into society, promoting well-being, and fostering connections between these individuals and the majority, while also raising awareness within the majority community. The organization's scope also encompasses the support of marginalized communities afflicted by poverty. PiP cadre of community and social workers engage with children, teenagers, and adults, providing education, vocational counseling, fostering financial literacy, digital proficiency, and assisting beneficiaries in constructing decent living arrangements. Furthermore, the organization advocates for requisite changes in public policies to bolster these objectives. Through its educational endeavors, we contribute to the cultivation of a more inclusive, tolerant, and open society within Slovakia. The cornerstone of our operations could be classified into three pivotal domains: Development Cooperation and Humanitarian Aid, Social Inclusion, and Global Education. Join us in our mission to create a better world for all.

People in Peril is a non-governmental, non-profit organization with over 20 years of experience. Since 1999, we have been providing development and humanitarian aid, implementing social integration programs focused on poverty and socially excluded communities, and conducting projects such as Global Education, One World, and Real Gift, among others.

Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, we have been helping people who have had to leave their homes. Through successfully implemented projects, we have created stimulating environments and safe spaces within low-threshold clubs and programs for Ukrainian children and their caregivers across four regions in Slovakia. These initiatives offer consistent opportunities for formal and non-formal education, provide individualized psycho-social support and targeted social interventions, and promote local inclusion.

Our mission is to effectively help people suffering from the consequences of war conflicts, natural disasters and authoritarian regimes. Through educational activities and work in excluded communities in Slovakia and abroad, we contribute to building more open, tolerant and inclusive society.
