Youth4Integration: innovative youth work methods in dealing with refugees and migrants

"Youth4Integration" is an Erasmus Plus training course led by EuromedEve Italy together with GEYC with the aim of improving the youth work methods in dealing with refugees and migrants. The participants in the Training Course "Youth4Integration", which took place in Agrigento, Italy, from 23rd of September to 1st of October, shared their thoughts on the importance of tolerance in today's society.

The project was based on nonformal education methodology where the participants had an active role and prepared innovative methods and activities to be run in a nearby refugee center in Sicily. Migration is a powerful challenge for the European Union countries and we need to work more in empowering youth workers to deal with this in a professional way and support the adaptation / integration of the migrants in the host society.

 


During our project we had the chance to organize a round table with refugees and migrants allowing the participating youth working to learn and share their experience.
