Moving from the Margins of Society
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014,

Remaining on the margins of society is a reality for many migrants and members of minority communities. The partners to this application are engaged with language tuition classes and supporting migrants / minority communities (including Roma). We see the divide which exists in society based on language knowledge and / or understanding of the local society. These create barriers and lead to a sense of being excluded.Addressing these barriers will be a common theme of the project, where our aim will be develop and pilot a specific training course on engaging with local society, local democracy and visiting public service delivery settings (such as Library, Colleges, Police, Fire Service, Schools, Hospitals). This will increase cultural and political awareness. The course will assist in identifying cultural ambassadors (8 per partner) who will receive additional training and support to act as cultural ambassadors.The cultural ambassadors will link with public service delivery locations and NGO’s to arrange two pilot events on intercultural dialogue (to address misconceptions with / between public sector staff and community members). Support on running their own business / social enterprise will be provided so they can pursue the option create their own cultural awareness enterpriseThe project will include a staff mobility programme to enable a two way exchange of ideas and good practice and will be timed to add dimension to each partners training courses / events The project impact will be to break down the barriers and misconceptions within society and in particular between public sector service delivery and community members. The project results will include • In all partner languages - training manual, course materials, E-learning courses • Website (in English and part in partner languages) & Social Media• In English and partner languages - Five newsletters, .
