Who we are and what we do
Our goal: to form a positive image of Ukraine as a modern and attractive European country.
Our mission: the development of the Ukrainian diaspora in Spain in order to strengthen international ties between Ukraine and Spain.
Olga Dzyuban founded the “Djerelo” Association in 2012 to help Ukrainians.
Ukrainians who find themselves in Spain and want to stay in this country, to integrate, have great needs for legal advice, psychological support, communication, and a warm friendly atmosphere. All this gives the compatriots “Djerelo”.
The second most important goal is to show Ukrainian culture, share traditions, create educational and cultural projects that make people’s lives rich, interesting and happy.
The main goals of the Association are:
- Development of Ukrainian educational, cultural, social and environmental projects
- Organization of events aimed at exchange and mutual enrichment of Ukrainians with representatives of other cultures
- Preservation of Ukrainian cultural traditions
- Social adaptation of Ukrainians in Spain
- Promotion of Ukrainian manufacturers and representatives of creative industries
- Development of the institution of volunteering in Catalonia
- Collection of humanitarian aid for Ukraine and assistance to Ukrainian refugees. (since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, work in this direction has become more intensive)
