Ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and Africa result in migration movements to Europe on the one hand as well as European countries closing down their borders on the other hand. The European Union is facing one of its biggest challenges nowadays.
Our project supports the believe that a greater coordination between EU Member States and the creation of shared European values will manage migrant and asylum flows more sustainably. In order to strengthen the European Union and support the integration movements in the EU, a common European project needs to be implemented. Therefore, refugees and migrants need to be integrated more successfully – not only into the society of the particular receiving country but also into the European community.
The project aims to adapt special courses – focusing on European contents to the already existing integration courses in the different European countries. The courses contain different modules, dealing with the culture, history, legal system and forms of the social interaction in the particular receiving country.
For a successful integration and creation of a European identity, the communication of knowledge about the EU and Europe are indispensable. Therefore, the project partners, coming from different European countries, will elaborate a European module for integration courses, based on shared European values. Additionally, train-the-trainer workshops will be offered and an e-learning platform with all elaborated materials will be provided. The project findings as well as relevant next steps in order to enhance integration into the EU will be published and disseminated via a policy paper and various events. Through these course contents, the social integration is aimed to increase. Additionally the European community cohesion will be fostered among the target group of refugees and migrants as well as the involved organizations and stakeholders.
