As we mentioned in the proposal, we were driven by the desire to join forces to respond to a real need in their territories of reference in the informal L2 education field, the partner associations have successfully implemented the "ALL-IN" project and achieved the (general) objective of promoting the sociolinguistic inclusion of migrants, refugees and applicants in the territories where they live and work, which was achieved by improving the quality of L2 teaching through the design and testing of innovative teaching practices in 4 EU countries (specific objective). The direct beneficiaries of the project were the L2 teachers of the various countries involved, both working in the formal and informal teaching system and the organisations and institutions providing L2 courses. The indirect beneficiaries will be the foreign citizens who use these courses.
When we applied for the project, the scenario of the four European Union countries (Italy, Germany, France and Spain) involved in the project, there was (and still is) an increasing presence of immigrant citizens from third countries and other EU countries which has required over the years a greater commitment to policies and practices aimed at fostering an open and inclusive society, the promotion of communicative competences in the languages of the host countries remains to be a key element in achieving this objective. One of the main challenges facing the world of L2 teaching is to offer a training proposal that responds to the real needs, requirements and interests of learners. These needs were addressed in the ALL IN project by creating guidelines on good practices and methodologies useful to overcome the difficulties highlighted in L2 teaching for adults in formal and informal contexts, with particular regard to the ‘vulnerable’ target groups (eg women, asylum seekers, unaccompanied foreign minors), resulting from a previous reserach in each country and the elaboration of a didactic Manual with modules of L2 teaching for adults in each country (EN + Language of the country).
