Together for Change

<< Objectives >>T4Change is a school raising awareness project lead by JRS E to be implemented in 8 other European Countries (BE, ES, GR, HR, HU, IT, RS and PT) aiming at fostering student’s civic engagement to promote critical thinking skills and migrants’ integration by encouraging students to take actions together with young migrants to participate in schools and community initiatives. Migrants empowerment and participation is ensured by giving migrant self-led organizations a key role in all project stages.<< Implementation >>Project partners will review and adapt raise-awareness education materials with the support of self-led migrants’ organizations, conduct training for teachers and young migrants to engage them in the implementation of school workshops. Migrant initiatives will be identified to later support students and young migrants to participate in volunteering and events to foster meaningful relations with the migrant communities. Results of the project will be discussed at 1 European and 8 national events.<< Results >>8500 students, teachers, parents, community leaders and other stakeholders raised their awareness and knowledge about migration issues. 24-40 solidarity initiatives implemented by students together with 45-72 migrants lead to increased students´ engagement. 160-260 teachers strengthened their skills in implementing awareness workshops with students; 1 European mapping report of migrant initiatives created. Strengthened partnerships and a school network as long-lasting impact beyond the project.
