In 2016, GPB became an association and since then it has been providing various types of support, from basic necessities to helping with housing and finding a suitable job. When it is possible, GPB also helps with other needs beneficiaries of international protection might have. We provide the necessary support by mobilising our volunteer team, our social mentors, our staff, or by sharing information with the followers of the GPB Facebook group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-3 wp-block-paragraph\">Since 2019, GPB in cooperation with the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) supports returnees after secondary resettlement, providing them with the necessary means for a dignified life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-4 wp-block-paragraph\">Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, GPB has provided multilateral support to refugees from Ukraine in Latvia, providing both information and practical assistance, as well as coordinating several teams of volunteers to provide immediate support. GPB has maintained and continues to sustain various informational platforms for both the Ukrainian civilian population in Latvia and the local population with information on the support available and about opportunities to help refugees. GPB has run the NGO information centre at the Riga Support Centre for Ukrainian residents since its inception. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-black-color has-text-color
