Project Summary

PROJECT BACKGROUND
The REUERHC project aims to:
• help the integration of the target group (represented by migrants and refugees)
• give this target group the opportunity to develop opportunities for self-employment
• also help the national economies of the countries hosting migrants.
In fact, the target group can become a very useful workforce mine to European countries because it would support local economies with new prosperity and new job opportunities.
Since migrants and refugees represent a group that is often at risk of exclusion, the project’s primary objective is to make available, train and encourage the development of professional qualifications that help these people in their careers.
In this sense, the project pursues the strategic objectives of international cooperation established in the Copenhagen process in the field of vocational education and training and follows the guidelines of the Europe 2020 strategy.
Human migration is a centuries-old phenomenon that dates back to the early periods of human history and it is a complex phenomenon that affects a multiplicity of economic, social and security aspects that influence our daily life in an increasingly interconnected world.
On the one hand, migration contributes to improving the lives of people moving from their countries of origin to seek a safe and meaningful life abroad (often due to conflicts, persecutions, degradation, etc.) and on the other side , can create problems for the hosting communities. In this context, however, we must not forget that human capital coming from qualified immigrants can represent an important source of innovation in the hosting countries and can contribute, if well managed, to becoming a source of development.

OBJECTIVES
The REUERHC project intends, in 27 months of activity, to
– support the integration of migrants and refugees
– give them training opportunities
– help them develop autonomous companies
– guide their cultural growth with various products (guides, online training course, etc.).

PLANNED ACTIVITIES
To do this, the project intends to develop 4 different intellectual outputs and organize 5 transnational project meetings, 1 joint staff training event, 6 multiplier events and a wide dissemination campaign suitable for the planned activities (with project logo, website, 4 newsletters, Facebook page of the project, Facebook group, conferences and press releases, a video spot to promote the EC’s efforts, an eBook of best practices, the organization of multicultural festivals and public seminars and debates, etc. )
The project also foresees the use of the Erasmus + dissemination platforms.

IMPACT
The project aims to:
– Reinforce motivation among partner organizations
– Strengthen cooperation, communication and experience for partner organizations
– Increase the motivation for the online training
– contribute to intercultural cooperation
– develop formal, non-formal and informal education for disadvantaged groups
– improve the management of organizations
