CONCEPT
Become an Estonian citizen in 20 minutes. That’s the tantalizing prospect offered to asylum seekers, many of whom desperately want to start their own business while awaiting the outcome of their asylum application. Even though they are highly educated and skilled, they are legally prohibited from working or setting up business. The “e-Estonia” offers a solution. Everybody can become a digital citizen of Estonia. That entitles them to work legally, with no strings attached, even though they live elsewhere. Thanks to the internet means, many refugees have all they need to work. The Working Refugees (TWR) makes it possible for them to do just that. An online manual explains everything: theworkingrefugees.com.
