PROTECT.Ing develops a digital tool for the identification and digital documentation of special protection needs of refugees in reception centres. Our project aims to reduce interface problems and information gaps in a fragmented reception system. The tool supports the provision of an adequate accommodation, of needs-based healthcare, and of procedural guarantees and protection measures during the asylum procedure.
