Seminario: “Migration: from inclusion to employability, a sustainable process”
20/08/2014 - 27/08/2014

This project is a Training and Networking project with Neighboring Partner Countries implementing a seminar with the title Migration: from inclusion to employability, a sustainable process”. The aim of the seminar is to improve the work of youth workers and leaders within issues related with migration and youth. The main aim is the capacity building of different youth organizations to go towards the involvement of youth with migrant background, also working with their “hosting societies”, the image that their peers have towards immigrants, and the building of sustainable strategies for their active inclusion in society and in the labour market. In the 7 days of the seminar, the 30 youth workers, gathering together in Cyprus, will be given useful tools and practical instruments for their work, and will share their experiences, best practices, obstacles, and ideas on how to work on inclusion of youngsters with migrant background.
During the activity, we will concentrate on topics such as the concept of migration, different kind of migrants, push and pull factors, institutions dealing with migration, strategies for employability, and how youth NGOs work in the field. The main point will be to provide the participants with tools through which the youth NGOs can involve youngsters coming from this background in their societies and in the labor market, improving at the same time the dialogue between them and the natives. Non formal education will be the main methodology used in the seminar. The methods used will include group discussions, round tables, theater, simulations, and activities stimulating creativity and participation of young people.
We are looking for 3 motivated youngster: available places left: 3 – Participation fee for each project is 30% of the travel costs, plus the annual membership fee 2014 (30€). For any questions, you can contact us by email at info@tdm2000.org
