Buddy Migrants Education Platform
BUDDY MIGRANTS EDUCATIONAL PLATFORM
Did you know that around 8% of the European Union’s population, approximately 34 million inhabitants, were born outside of the EU?
Unfortunately, many non-EU-born adults seeking connection to the labor market lack a high level of education, and young migrants are more likely to drop out of school and be at risk of poverty or social exclusion.
Visit the page of Buddy Migrants project, with which we aim to address these challenges by supporting schools as hubs for integration and the development of an inclusive society.
Our project has two main objectives. Firstly, we seek to overcome the barriers that newly arrived third-country national families face when accessing social services such as education, healthcare, employment, and information. Secondly, we aim to promote inclusive environments that foster social inclusion, equity, and equality, responding to the needs of the wider communities in our project countries.
Our priorities include raising awareness of European Union common values and principles among newly arrived TCN families, encouraging their participation in democratic life, and helping them overcome difficulties in actively engaging and participating in their communities. Additionally, Buddy Migrants aims to develop the social and intercultural competences and critical thinking of teachers, parents, and children, offering opportunities for participation in social and civic engagement through formal and non-formal learning activities.
