CONTEXTEurope in 2016 is a place where there is a need to reaffirm fundamental rights which are called into question by states’ policy on migration and by the dichotomy between European traditions and new cultural models. There are today large portion of European societies willing to “discriminate” in order to “protect” themselves from the perceived risks brought by increasing migration flows. Taking into account such a context, education becomes more and more the crucial point of any possible improvement of social understanding and peaceful cohabitation in a renewed European society. OBJECTIVESThe I Have Rights (IHR) project has the objective to provide secondary school teachers with the skills to deal with multicultural classrooms where European fundamental values are shared and understood. Through the project, teachers will acquire intercultural competences based on the knowledge and understanding of human rights and non-discrimination values with reference to migration, thus contributing to create an educational policy able to promote equality in European society.TARGET GROUPSThe main target groups of the project are: - secondary school students and teachers - school headmasters and administrative staff; - policy makers and experts in the field of education ACTIVITIESThe project activities will be organized in the following phases:Phase 1 - Data collection an analysis for the collection of Case Studies and Best PracticesThis phase is devoted to the scientific analysis of the state of the art in non-discrimination and intercultural competences in secondary schools. The aim is to assess the perception on discrimination and migration related issues of the target groups (students, teachers, headmasters, administrative personnel, parents). Phase 2 – Development of the GuidelinesThis phase is dedicated to the creation of the Guidelines for secondary school teachers that have the aim to increase their intercultural competences and raise awareness on non-discrimination values at school level. The Guidelines will be created also to contribute to the development of schools policies aimed to fight against discrimination and to promote equality at schools with specific reference to the management of multicultural classrooms with presentence of migrants and refugees students.Phase 3 – Development of the PublicationThis phase is dedicated to the creation of a research book that will collect research materials carried out by the project partners during the project lifecycle as a reflection on integration issues and intercultural education at school.Phase 4 - TestingEach of the deliverables produced will be tested in the framework of specific events addressed to the project’s target groups. The testing phase will allow the collection of relevant feedbacks from the end users in order to further improve the deliverables produced and create results that are fully consistent with needs and expectations of the end users.Phase 5 - Training and Multiplier eventsThe project partners will organize workshops addressed to teachers and headmasters, using non formal education tools aiming at developing intercultural competences and raising of awareness and acquisition of knowledge on non-discrimination principle with reference to migration issues.
