Face2face: facilitating dialogue between migrants and European citizens (F2F)

Submitted by Ms. Laurence BRON on

The project aims to break down negative stereotypes and improve public perception of migrants and the phenomenon of migration in the Czech Republic, United Kingdom, Italy and Spain by creating strong and long-lasting basis for interaction and dialogue between migrants and members of receiving communities. Since a large part of the project will take place in 2013, the European Year of Citizenship, the project seeks to bring attention to the wider definition of citizen, meaning a person who is linked to a country by rights, but also by responsibility to the society.

Job Fair

Submitted by Mr. Dário Muhamudo on

The Romanian Ministry of Labour, Family and Equal Opportunities, through its National Agency for Employment has held several Job Fair events in Spain and Italy.
