Sažetak
The paper aims to investigate the role of migrant networks, i.e., in which way Ukrainians in
Zagreb, who migrated as voluntary immigrants, today members of the Ukrainian national minority
in the Republic of Croatia, have been helping Ukrainians who came to Zagreb as forced
migrants after the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The paper is based on qualitative research, in
particular, interviews with volunteers and refugees. The research analyses the role of migrant
networks when choosing Croatia as the host country, the arrival, the first days upon the arrival
and the later integration. The results show that migrant networks are immensely important in
forced migration, not only in providing practical assistance, economic and social dimensions
of the integration, but also as far as the emotional aspect is concerned. Their role changes in
parallel with the length of stay in Zagreb, i.e., the needs of the migrants.
