CREADE Barcelona (Centro de Recepción, Atención y Derivación) is a primary reception and referral centre located in the Sants-Montjuïc district of Barcelona, Spain.

Context & Operations: The facility was established by the Spanish Ministry of Inclusion, Social Security and Migration in 2022 to provide an immediate, centralized response for people displaced by the war in Ukraine. It serves as a comprehensive hub offering temporary protection processing, legal assistance, psychological support, labor orientation, and referral to the national reception system.

Management: The centre is operated under the direct authority of the central government, working in coordination with the Spanish Red Cross and the National Police (who handle identity and protection documentation). The CREADE services in Barcelona originally launched at the Fira de Barcelona exhibition center before relocating to the dedicated facility on Calle de Sant Fructuós.
