The main goal of this project was meeting the socio-educational needs of the immigrant group in social exclusion, with the adoption of innovative practices that respond to the shortcomings of their socio-family context, psychosocial or curricular, and that are attended by organizations of formal and non-formal education. We intended to develop new approaches to deal with social, ethnic, linguistic and cultural diversity in multiple contexts. Consequently, the aim of Hope for all project was to improve professional skills of the staff working in the education field with migrants (whether they are volunteers or workers), especially young professionals with less experience. Working with organizations from Slovenia and Greece was a great opportunity to understand the dynamics of social inclusion that are used in other contexts of the European Union, having different approaches to face a common problem. We have tried to generate cooperative knowledge regarding the intervention of the group of migrants, on the one hand through transnational meetings and on the other through joint work on an intervention guide generated from the methodological vision of each of the participating organizations.
Alis Canarias motivation for applying to a project of this nature was to seek to improve the conditions of migrants in our territory, as an entity that operates in a multicultural context. This project has given us the opportunity to learn from other entities that also work with this group, exchange good practices and generate synergies to achieve greater social impact. The needs that gave rise to this project were to improve our capacity for action and performance, adapting to the demands and challenges posed by the current migratory reality. In recent years, the Canary Islands have suffered different waves of migration, which has had social consequences. The entity works in favor of the inclusion of migrants, minors mainly, through education and sport, raising awareness among the general population about this problem. These previous projects allowed us to know the shortcomings and situations faced by this group, and were the reason why we wanted to create this project. The migratory reality in the Canary Islands has given us the challenge of trying to understand the difficulties from a European perspective. Requesting funding for this project has been the response to a problem that affects the European Union.
