SolidarityLine Croatia (SLC) is a distress hotline for people on the move, supporting those within Croatian territory. The aim of SLC is to assist those in physical danger—whether injured, facing health issues, stranded in forests, freezing, or drowning—as well as those at risk of pushbacks, in need of asylum access, detained, or missing.
SLC supports also people and relatives that are looking for they loved ones that are desappeared on the route. In many cases familis contact SLC after loosing the contact with their brothers, nephews, relatives that were crossing the border. SLC in doing this collaborates with 4D. 4D is a migrant justice database operating since many years and focused on documenting human losses that occur on the so-called Balkan Route.
Since May 1st 2026 until today, at least 13 people have died in Croatian territory and along the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina and Slovenia. 13 people in 10 days, in different moments and under different circumstances. The money raised with this people's kitchen will not go to the SLC, but rather to the costs of a funeral or repatriation of a recent victim of the border regime.
