[[Strengthening Asylum]] has been implemented by the [[Future Worlds Center]] since May 2006.  It is funded by the [[UNHCR]] Representation in Cyprus.  This project’s main objective is to ensure that beneficiaries have access to a fair and efficient asylum procedure, while they can enjoy the rights they are entitled to according to national, European, and International law.  To this end, [[Strengthening Asylum]] assists asylum seekers through the asylum procedure, as well as refugees in Cyprus under international protection, with free legal and social aid.

*[[Improvement of the Situation of Asylum Seekers in Cyprus]]
"Improvement of the Situation of Asylum Seekers in Cyprus" is a project funded by the Federal Republic of Germany. The project aims to take a holistic approach by working both at the individual and the societal levels. By offering legal services, we will respond to the needs of the target population, who are one of the most marginalised groups in the country and by launching public advocacy and awareness-raising activities we will affect xenophobic public attitudes, discriminatory state policies and practices in an effort to make Cyprus a more inclusive and accepting host society. This projects works complimentary to the other projects of the [[Humanitarian Affairs Unit]].
