SUMMARY:Applications for Returnee Support now being accepted
DESCRIPTION:Returnee support /Tagasipöördumistoetus \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Constitution of the Republic of Estonia lays down the right of every ethnic Estonian and Estonian citizen to settle in Estonia. The Integration Foundation has long supported the repatriation of Estonians who have stayed away from Estonia or were born abroad (from the age of 15) and Estonian citizens to Estonia\, paying return support to those in need. \n\n\n\nThe aim of the programme is to encourage Estonian citizens and ethnic Estonians and their descendants to settle in Estonia. It is important for Estonia that the population of the country increases on account of Estonian citizens and ethnic Estonians. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nMore info\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEesti Vabariigi Põhiseadus sätestab iga eestlase ja Eesti kodaniku õiguse asuda Eestisse elama. Integratsiooni Sihtasutus toetab pikka aega Eestist eemal viibinud või välisriigis sündinud eestlaste (alates 15-aasta vanusest) ja Eesti kodanike Eestisse naasmist\, makstes abivajajatele tagasipöördumistoetust. \n\n\n\nProgrammi eesmärk on soodustada Eesti kodanike ja etniliste eestlaste ning nende järeltulijate Eestisse elama asumist. Eesti jaoks on oluline\, et riigi elanikkond suureneks Eesti kodanike ja etniliste eestlaste arvel. \n\n\n\nKes saab tagasipöördumistoetust taotleda? \n\n\n\nTagasipöördumistoetus on suunatud pikka aega võõrsil viibinud lastega perede tagasipöördumise soodustamiseks\, kuivõrd aastatega suureneb pereliikmete arv ning tagasikolimisteenused on kulukad. Pikka aega võõrsil viibimise ehk seitsme aasta nõuet ei kohaldata kuni 40-aastastele välismaal magistri- ja doktoriõppe läbinud noortele\, et soodustada võõrsil hariduse saanud noorte tagasipöördumist ja tööle asumist Eestis. \n\n\n\n\nRohkem infot
