Objectives

With this project "BETTER IN" we want to make involve and increase the capacity of social workers and mediators from immigrants organizations working in disadvantage neighborhoods. It is essential that young people feel they have the opportunity to carry out fully the personal and professional point of view, and ensure a new dynamic in European society. The aims: • To increase the opportunities on social and economical inclusion that are available to social workers and mediators working in disadvantage areas and discusses ways in which the knowledge, skills and attitudes needed by social workers and mediators at different stages of their community actions can be permeated by principles and practice necessary to work in inclusive settings. The main objectives: • To train 40 social workers and mediators on social justice, which lists poverty as a primary social-economical problem to provide better responses to the local communities, specially young people living in isolate areas. • To develop competencies based on political will and leadership from isolated areas and vulnerable neighborhoods reflected in a comprehensive and multifaceted programme of actions, matched by existing resources, but that have not previously been used. • To reduce the tension expressed most fully in the government’s unwillingness to get to grips with the place of segregated special communities in an inclusive system, consequently reducing poverty and lack of social and economical responses in isolated areas. • To explore ways of working in closer partnership with social workers, mediators, parents and the local community and to renew their efforts to overcome the obstacles to the social, economical and community contexts of inclusion. • To identifying and mapping community vulnerability as way to define and implement keys proposals and projects from immigrants organizations using nationals and European fund programmes that benefit young people, particularly those experiencing difficulties. • To built a group of responses composed by social workers, mediators, emergency planners, policy‐makers and responding organizations encouraged to identify and locate high‐risk sectors on community vulnerability maps and that can play an important role in helping the poor and working to eradicate poverty among young people living in isolated areas and vulnerable situations.
