Introduksjon
  • Complex renovation and urbanization of Ytre Arna Industrihus

 

I arrived in Norway two years ago as a master’s student from Ukraine. I had to register as a refugee and learned that many Ukrainians hadn’t settled down yet. Their past lives were destroyed, and their new ones hadn’t started. Despite being in the Integration Program, they remained in «Limbo,» uncertain and waiting too long. 

Limbo occurs after tragic events like fleeing war, leading to loss of job, family, friends, and hope, resulting in depression. The complexity of Limbo is terrifying; people lose everything instantly and realize too late they need to start anew, feeling hopeless. 

Solving this requires a strong system addressing all aspects, restoring lives gradually. I see three main paths: physical and mental therapy, learning new skills, and adapting to a new society. The Labor School project in Ytre Arne guides people from lost to new lives, helping them find community, reinvent themselves, gain work skills, and integrate into society. 

The project fosters unification and cooperation, connecting people from different backgrounds and problems, creating a strong society to help individuals leave Limbo and start new lives.
