Migration to Integration

Description

Realizing that there is a lack of methods in youth work who could facilitate refugee integration, organisations from Sweden, Kenya, Colombia and Myanmar (refugee origin or host countries) decided to join for the project “Migration to Integration” (MI) .The main AIM of the project: to improve youth work methods on young refugees’ integration and, accordingly, help them integrate.OBJECTIVES to reach it: 1. Raise the qualifications and competencies of youth workers by developing new methods for refugee integration through youth work;2. Exchange good practices between countries on alternative ways of integrating refugees within the local communities;3. Help youth learn how to communicate with refugees and integrate them better through social activities;4. Lower xenophobia, racism and foster multilingualism of the youth;5. Spread the main idea of the project to other NGOs and the general public;6. Foster capacity building and new social initiatives in the field of youth work related to refugees;7. Increase transnational cooperation & exchange of good practices on alternative ways of refugees integration.To achieve these OBJECTIVES, a capacity building programme, targeting youth workers from EU & Partner countries, will be developed, tested & launched. It will include: (1) Analysis of situation of refugee integration in partner countries and creation of a training material for youth workers to improve it;(2) 3 training courses for youth workers on integration of young refugees through youth work;3) 1 youth exchange to test the methods created during the above mentioned training courses;(4) 4 job shadowing activities in the above mentioned countries for youth workers to gain practical knowledge of how to improve inclusion of refugees;(3) Developing open educational resources (including an online platform and e-learning course on refugee integration through youth work), which would allow youth workers to access the educational content developed in the frame of the project at any time(4) Launch of online competition for youth to develop ideas on refugee integration and raise awareness about their situation; 5) Initiative “Friends without borders” to connect young refugees with local youngsters and facilitate refugee adaptation in a new country;(6) Final local conferences to share the results with target audiences in partner countries.All in all, this will surely improve the capacity of youth workers to help integration of refugees through youth work and create further initiatives related to that.
