Carusel Association
Carusel was created in 2011 out of a need for solidarity, to provide social and medical services to people in extremely vulnerable situations. We are a group of activists and professionals in the field of harm reduction, and our interventions are based on scientific evidence, international guidelines, following strategies and principles based on long studies.
Our beneficiaries are people facing multiple vulnerabilities, where change cannot happen overnight. Our interventions are predominantly focused on people's immediate needs, but we also think in the long term. We aim to reduce vulnerabilities step by step so that the most important thing happens - they stay alive.
We seek to give a voice to the most vulnerable of the vulnerable - homeless people, drug users, commercial sex workers, people in extreme poverty or at risk of social exclusion, those living with HIV, TB or other infectious diseases, victims of abuse, those without ID or healthcare and many others. They are the ones nobody sees, who are marginalised, humiliated, bullied or ignored. Through our interventions we also aim to give them back their dignity and remind them that they are human.
