Description

Established in 1979, StARS is a refugee service provider in central Cairo, working to improve the quality of life of vulnerable refugees and migrants through five broad programme areas: education, psychosocial support, legal services, community outreach, and protection services for unaccompanied children and youth. We provide high-quality services to meet refugees’ unmet needs, and offer a safe and inclusive space for displaced people to come together as a community. We work for refugees and with refugees to make the recognition of rights a reality.
