This is important for people who have left their country and are looking for a reliable source of information where they can find out about opportunities to live, study, work, legalize, and so on. After all, the search for such information usually takes a long time, many unverified sources make a person, who has just moved or plans to move to a new country, uncertain.
The new mobile application is designed to help Ukrainians navigate after arriving in the Czech Republic and solve problems of employment, education, health care, housing, etc. Search queries for information of interest to the user can be found via the virtual assistant chat.
In fact, such a model of app can be used in different countries of the world with a large number of emigrants from Ukraine.
