Helping migrants cope

Still, situations and challenges posed by a completely new environment may provide considerable hardships for the foreign migrants.

Fortunately, as Sławek Szefs reports, their problems are also gaining increased awareness and positive response from a number of Polish institutions and organisations.

"A well informed person with easily available and quick access to relevant information feels much more secure in a new environment. Thanks to this foreign migrants may be more active,” Aleksandra Górecka from the InfoMigrator website told Polish Radio.
