The introduction of the Bezahlkarte for refugees is taking us back then to the old system of Vouchers we once fought to be abolished.

We want to identify where the Bezahlkarte is already in use and where it will be soon. We want to know what information is being shared about it and what questions people have.

We have created a short survey for anyone living in Heims / Shelters in Berlin or Brandenburg.

There are only a few questions and it will take just take a few minutes to answer.

Information shared is anonymous.

The Voucher System was used to pay refugees social assistance by the State. In 2012 the O-Platz refugee movement come together to fight the voucher system and the Residenzpflicht. Both stopped! Over the past years, refugees received this assistance through cash or over the counter cashing cheques!

Now, we see a change and the introduction of the Bezahlkarte which is taking us back then to the old system.

IW*S are hosting open meetings on the Bezahlkarte topic for organisations / collectives / individuals to join together again and to oppose this again! This survey will support and ground our work.
