Within the framework of the EMV-LII project, “Empowering Migrant Voices for Local Integration and Inclusion,” co-financed by the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF), we had the honour of hosting the partner consortium, which comprises 19 organisations from 7 countries. The objective of the EMV-LII project is to improve the quality of life for migrants and their inclusion in society through participatory and innovative approaches.
During the visit, we presented our institution and its activities with a special emphasis on our work related to migrant integration. This included:
- Croatian language instruction for foreigners, which features excellent collaboration with employers.
- Our Erasmus+ Accreditation in the field of adult education, one of the objectives of which is to enrich our educational offerings and capacities in the foreign languages sector.
- The submitted project proposal, “Bridging Cultures,” which aims to foster the social inclusion of third-country nationals in Međimurje County through participatory activities and active engagement in the life of the local community.
We thank Međimurje County and all participants of the study visit for their interest and constructive discussions. We look forward to future collaboration and the exchange of experiences to strengthen the social inclusion of migrants.
