Project Summary

The number of international migrants has increased by 49 per cent since 2000 to 258 million in 2017, according to a report published by the United Nations for International Day of Migration. This issue has increased the demand for the basic needs of newly arrived refugees and provision of these needs. Lack of informative, educational, and supportive tools have made refugees less likely to seek remedy for health, follow advice from the authorities to find official employment. In addition, lack of language skills has created another barrier for newly arrived refugees to understand bureaucratic procedures to integrate into society. CORES project addressed those issues by working with adult education providers in different program countries to ease the burden of refugees’ crises left on governments in EU; to contribute the newly arrived and host society mutual acceptance. In this CORES, firstly, examined social harmony within the Program countries. As a result, a situational and needs analysis reports were developed. Based on the findings of the analysis reports, Charter of Common Refugee Strategies were developed at the European Union level, which considered local dynamics and values for each partner country. CORES aimed to develop tools (online learning platform) for professionals working in the field of adult education to use during their practices. Thus, an online learning platform was created using the information contained in this charter to be used by the adult education providers as informative, educational, and supportive material in electronic format. The Project has had various contributions, effects and impacts in many ways for participants, participating organizations, target groups and other relevant stakeholders. However, the pandemic conditions have direct effect on measuring the overall impact of the project proposal on participants, participating organizations, target groups and other relevant stakeholders. As a result, the CORES project directly contributed to Commission’s horizontal priority which is social inclusion. In particular, one of the main priorities was to contribute to the successful management of immigration at the European Level which would be a key to success for a wealthy life and future by developing an innovative and inclusive tool for the target groups. Therefore, the products of this project will lead to successful social inclusion of refugees, migrants (newcomers) in terms of social harmony, mutual acceptance and skills tailored to the needs of the marketplace.
