Many migrants from Afghanistan not only want to improve their language skills in their new home country, but they also want their children to learn their mother tongue. Speaking often works well, but the biggest challenge is reading and writing. The proportion of migrants who speak the language of the host country at home is particularly high in Germany, Slovakia and other European countries. In Germany, 36% of migrants speak German at home. More than 25% of students in North Rhine-Westphalia have a migration background. In many regions, children can learn their mother tongue in so-called "language of origin classes". Offers in Germany are available in Albanian, Bosnian, Farsi, Greek, Italian, Croatian, Kurdish, Polish, Portuguese, Romanesque and Turkish. Not in Pashto and often not in Dari. In some regions, children go to class in the mosque. There are hardly any offers for adults. Through the exchange of good practice, we would like to find ways to improve the offer to learn the mother tongue for adult migrants from Afghanistan. Four project meetings and one learning activity take place during the project. On the project website we also offer documents for download on Dari and Pashto. Another important point of our project is the establishment of a network.
