IOM identified a lack of autonomy of residents of the facility in cooking and preparing food in a preferred time, mothers' control of nutrition of their kids and importance for residents to keep their traditions alive through their national cuisine. In July 2022 IOM replied to these needs by delivering 450 kitchen sets to each family and persons living individually in the facility. A set consisted of pots, a pan, knifes, cutlery, sponges, plates, bowls and cups.

Additionally, in mid-July IOM distributed 500 hygienic sets, separately for men, women and children.
