•Background:Nowadays, social exclusion of migrants and refugees exists in many European countries, although it is not well-reflected in our educational systems. Thus, tackling inequalities in education should be a part of the comprehensive fight for social justice,in order to make universal values alive.The acquisition of basic skills and mostly learning the language is the foundation for the integration process and the access to further learning and the gateway to employment and social inclusion.•Objectives:The purpose of INCREA project was the development of training modules and activities respecting the different culture of the individuals to support their integration in the European societies through language and entrepreneurial competences, including soft skills as well as digital skills. In fact,INCREA developed an innovative ICT tool-based on the methodology of Serious game-integrated in a blended-learning environment aiming in transferring knowledge towards target audience together with a manual that fosters creative entrepreneurship in European societies.•Undertaken activities:INCREA activities aimed in identifying the following challenges in relation with the needs of European societies:-1:Lack of adequate language skills – A language skills course was created with hands-on examples of professional language use in working environments.-2:Lack of professional and employment-related skills – INCREA also provided a combination of courses enhancing migrants and refugees’ digital and entrepreneurial skills in order to support them in being part of European creative industries or create their own business. •Participants:Different target groups were involved:-Migrants/ refugees that participated in an analysis aiming in identifying the gap between their level and the current situation in European industries.

The first step comprised a detailed skills gap analysis serving as the basis for the delivery of all outputs. Within IO2,3 courses and a training scheme were delivered addressing language, digital and entrepreneurial skills that are required in the creative sector. Moreover,a hands-on manual was prepared within IO3 including useful information about the administrative rules that currently occur in each partner country.Finally, a Serious Game was developed for IO4 serving as an assessment tool with motivational workflows.The results of IO2, IO3 and IO4 are hosted in a Learning Motivational Environment that supports the learning process providing autonomy to the users. •Impact:The impact of the project was related to the main objectives:1.The social inclusion of new migrants in order to increase their contribution to grow creates new job opportunities in Europe in the near future.2.Raising awareness about the benefits of social inclusion aimed also in leveraging of various stakeholders involved.
