Connexio develop supports social-diaconal projects in North Macedonia, Poland, Serbia, the Czech Republic, Romania and Hungary.
Central and Southern Europe
Among other things, the focus of our work in Europe is on promoting and empowering children and supporting particularly vulnerable population groups (e.g., members of the Roma minority, people who have fled their homes, and people in need in the last third of their lives).
Urs Schweizer advises local leaders on the one hand and supports local organizations in their development on the other. He also ensures the flow of information between the local partner organizations and their work and Connexio develop in Switzerland.
Urs explains the motivation behind his work: "It is a privilege to serve people in Eastern Central Europe and the Balkans and to support them in setting signs of hope and love in a variety of ways. And it makes me grateful when this happens across all borders in a sustainable and trusting relationship between equals."
