Project Goals, Activities And Impact
The project intend to bring an impact on the EU Agenda on migration and integration, targeting young beneficiaries, with a direct engagement of stakeholders and policy makers.
Through this project we aim to support EU citizenship principles, and to contribute to the civic and democratic participation at EU level, reaffirming values of solidarity, intercultural dialogue, mutual understanding and combating stereotypes, against minorities in general, and in particular about migrations, migrants and refugees.
We will also be looking at the historical and current times of crises, our experiences when we were refugees and migrants, and when we were the host nations to other refugee groups.

Thesis Lab I - Online workshop
As part of the Project TAS Thesis Antithesis Synthesis Migration Labs, which is funded by Europe for Citizens Program of the European Union the workshop will be the first session of Migration Labs and will address the previous and current situation of migration challenges to migrants and policymakers.
