Developing Intercultural Competence on the Workplace
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014,

KAZI means ‘work’ in Swahili, a language spoken by 80 millions people in sub-Saharan Africa and by many migrants to Europe. According to Eurostat (2012) there are nearly 4 million people migrating every year in the EU. The Europe 2020 Strategy (2010) and the Stockholm Programme (2010) set out the effective integration of legal migrants. The European Agenda for the Integration of Third-Country Nationals (2011) recommends the organisation of introductory programmes for newly arrived migrants easing their insertion in the society and work place, as well as well as the development of methodologies and tools to equip teachers and trainers with the skills for managing diversity.Intercultural competence can be defined as the ability of successful communication and cooperation with people of other cultures. A person who is interculturally competent captures and understands, in interaction with people from foreign cultures, their specific concepts in perception, thinking, feeling. Intercultural competence has been listed as one of the eight key competences for lifelong learning identified by the EU.The partners will develop a set of modular training materials (Interculturality Competence Development Pack In Work Settings, in short I-pack) for carrying out training programmes (e-based and face to face) for migrants workers (including unemployed looking for a job), their coworkers and employers and supervisors. A blueprint describing how to use using the I-Pack, addressed to trainers, will also be developed.The I-pack could be used for: in service an initial training of migrant workers and co-workers, as well as awareness raising activity for employers and supervisors who are employing or supervising migrant workers.In total, accounting for some overlapping of the different tools, over 15,000 members of target groups will be informed about the project and about 1500 will be involved (of these, 650 migrants, co-workers, employers and 115 trainers trained).
