The overall objective of the project is to stimulate the inclusion of diverse groups of migrant children by adopting a child-centred approach to their integration at the educational and policy level. Stemming from the need to revisit the integration policies on the one hand and consistent with the specific focus of the call on the other hand, the research project aims at comprehensive examination of contemporary integration processes of migrant children in order to empower them. The project starts from the fact that European countries and their education systems encounter manifold challenges due to growing ethnic, cultural, linguistic diversity and thereby aims at: 1) Identifying existing measures for the integration of migrant children at the regional and local level through secondary data analysis; 2) Analysis of the social impacts of these integration programmes through case studies in ten countries applying qualitative and quantitative child-centred research; 3) Development of integration measures and identification of social investment particularly in educational policies and school systems that aim to empower children. The project is problem-driven and exploratory at the same time. Its exploratory part mainly concerns a child-centred approach to understanding integration challenges, migrants’ needs and their well-being. However, the findings of the open-ended exploratory research will be used in an explicitly problem-driven way – with an aim to stimulate migrant inclusion, to empower migrant children and build their skills already within the (participatory) research. This will be done through the activities of the Integration Lab and Policy Lab, where children’s voices, fieldwork and desk research findings will be translated into practices and measures for educational professionals and practitioners as well as into a child-centred migrant integration policy framework to stimulate social inclusion and successful management of cultural diversity.

The objective of the project Career Path is to enable migrant workers from non-EU countries in Europe to achieve their professional aspirations and fulfil their potential. In order to allow that to happen it's important to create an environment where they have access to qualified advice and guidance and to further professional development opportunities. The goal of this project is therefore to prepare policy recommendations and toolkits for and with relevant stakeholders (public institutions, employers, adult education organisations and NGOs) that will enable them to create a more supportive environment for the professional growth and economic integration of migrants.To fulfil this goal, we need to deeply understand the needs of our target group and the deficits of the existing environment that should be able to address them. For this reason we will map and analyse the existing situation in all partner countries by organising 30 interviews (5 interviews with public/civil servants and NGOs, 5 interviews with HR managers, 20 interviews with migrant workers from non-EU countries) in every partnership country (Czech Republic, Hungary, Croatia and Slovakia). A part of this background research will also be a report on best practices that will document the cases when migrants are getting good support in their career growth which can serve as examples to be replicated elsewhere.After the research part, we will organize 4 study visits (one in every partnership country). The main purpose and content of the visits will be a presentation of findings from the first phase, immersion in career guidance on the national level (explanation and showcasing), introduction of relevant stakeholders and sharing of best practices. Following study visits will be the preparation of the policy recommendations and compact toolkits for specific types of stakeholders. Policy recommendations will serve as suggestions and guidelines on the course of action and priorities for policymakers, public sector, employers, institutes of adult education and relevant NGOs. The toolkits will be tailor-made practical guides advising specific types of stakeholders how to translate policy recommendations into their daily reality. All throughout the project implementation, a special emphasis will be put on cooperation and networking amongst stakeholders. Contacts of all relevant stakeholders will be collected on a rolling basis throughout the project ́s phases and an effort will be made to engage them in the preparation of the outputs. During the last phase of the project, we will organize four multiplier events (one in every partner country), which will help us share and increase the visibility of the project ́s results amongst stakeholders. A database of the stakeholders ́ contacts will also be presented and shared at this event for purposes of future partnerships. All events and results will be communicated with a press release and by publishing information on partners ́ websites and social media.

Project United against (youth) precarity, addresses the stakeholders dealing with the issue of youth employment in the labor market. Atypical forms of employment and precarity are the current challenges which represent not only precarious work, but also precarious way of life of the young. Different countries are coping with these problems in different ways, which is why interpersonal communication and sharing opinions and experiences of organizations and people working in this field seem crucial. In the actual project a major emphasis will be placed on exchanging practices from different countries and learning about the most pressing problems that young people face when entering the labor market. Getting to know organizations as well as workers in these organizations is also important; Furthermore, the international comparison could be useful for these workers in their daily work. We have already participated with some of the organizations and, therefore, believe that such a project will open many doors for our future cooperation. In the selection of our partner organizations, diversity was taken into account as much as possible, so we invited youth organizations, trade unions and research institutes. The program of the training course will also be enriched with additional content selection, provided by Slovenian experts, who have long been engaged in this field. Based on this, we will have started gathering ideas about a common platform with our partner organizations already before the actual meeting in Slovenia. The common platform is expected to be, in its initial phase, expressed in a form of a joint website. A number of other European organizations in the field of precarious work would later join the platform. The purpose of the platform is to create the best possible conditions for the participation of various organizations in the area of precarious work and to improve the flow of information from different studies and examples of good practice across Europe. The aim of the platform is, in the long term, to improve working conditions and, consequently, lives of several young people in Europe.

"<< Objectives >>The implementation of this project should allow to ""Promote Digital Citizenship"", through the exchange of practices, exchange of tools and the development of knowledge among young people on ethical digital. The development of ethical digital technology must take into account ecological, social and economic issues. Therefore our consortium wishes to develop and democratize access to modern, ethical and sustainable digital tools, while respecting the rights of citizens.<< Implementation >>In order to build a network of trust and to spread our productions in Europe on the promotion of ""Digital Citizenship"" among young people, our consortium will organize - A seminar of meetings between organizations working for an ethical and rights-respecting digital world - Study visits in each partner country, in order to exchange on our practices and tools - A final seminar to disseminate our productions to national and European political representatives<< Results >>Our consortium wishes to produce and disseminate the following productions- A training repository - A repository of alternative resources and tools - An ethical guide for association leaders - A ""defense kit"" for young people in the face of digital technology- A declaration for an ethical and sustainable digital transition - A map of organizations working for the development of ethical digital technology in the project's partner countries"

Migration is one of the main themes that will continue challenging the attitudes of European governments, populations and individuals in both our current and future generations. Countries all over the Europe are engaged in developing strategies in integration and education of migrants, refugees and newcomers, and national and transnational institutions are still only beginning to develop suitable frameworks education in common, democratic values, civic engagement and participation with migrant adult learners. Integrating newcomers into our societies is a challenge which can only be solved on a transnational level. In our project, “Democratic Heritage - Memorials and heritage museums engaging migrants in developing resilient democracies”(DH) seven partners working with cultural heritage such as memorial sites, museums, NGOs, governmental institutions, and cultural centers have gathered to develop a cross-European forum where we will share and evaluate our best practices in adult migrant learning of common values, civil and democratic competencies: experiences and methods in working with newcomers, refugees and migrants. Using the European Councils democratic competencies together with the expertise from our institutions current learning programs, DH wishes to share and develop best practices on how institutions can further develop their innovative participatory methodologies and activities minted on newcomers, refugees and migrant populations in differing European contexts. The project includes workshops on best practices across borders, data gathering as well as evaluation of innovative methods and practices. The evaluation will be conducted based on surveys and questionnaires developed by the project group and will provide new and useful knowledge which will further advance the knowledge of democratic learning for migrants, refugees and newcomers. Profile of participants: The partnership will work in close contact to establish differing engagement strategies dependent on the participating groups varying situations. This will be a challenging task, but one we hope will engender a series of best practises which contain transferable knowledge and skills, allowing for differing institutions to learn from each other and carry these learning solutions through e-learning activities, written reports and published material. The PP’s involved are The Falstad Centre (Nor), Filipstad cultural school (Swe), World Value Survey (Swe), The Green Cultural and Educational Centre Visio (Fin), Art 27 (Blg), The University of Murcia (UMU), and the Centre of Peace Studies (Croatia).Objectives: The main objective of DH will be to share and develop the institutions innovative participatory methodologies, and seeing how they correspond to the learning requirements detailed in the Council of Europe’s democratic competencies. This will be ensured through the committing to a series of transnational best practice workshops and the production of a handbook, serving as intellectual outputs co-produced by all project partners. The handbook is translated to 7 languages.A second objective will be to collate and collect the data from the activities to help generate more information on the effect that this methodology can have on refugee, migrants and newcomers, relating to the European Council Democratic Competencies. This will be ensured through the development of a survey by the World Value Survey which serves as a second intellectual output, and will allow the collection of underrepresented data from migrant, refugee and newcomer populations. A third objective is the creation of a project website, which will share best practices, concrete examples as well as survey data, which will be available to other institutions engaged in adult migrant learning programs beyond the project periode.The partners involved in this project represent various organizations in the EU/EAA who all have developed and practice different strategies in working with migrants, refugees and newcomer through shared frame of common values, civic engagement and participation. Having a diverse set of partners allows this project to collect responses from both participants and teachers as well as collecting an international sample of empirical material from groups of migrants and refugees that are underrepresented in statistical studies. Developing a cross-european forum where experiences, techniques and methodologies in working with migrants, refugees and newcomer education can be shared, developed and tested in the field is a one of the primary objectives that this project will contribute to.
