Objectives

What We Want To Achieve By Implementing Our Project General Approach to Minority Rights The transformation of the European Union (EU) immigration policies in the last two decades is discussed in many scientific studies as a political science problem in a way that compares the practices of different member countries. However, EU migration policies primarily condition the lives of immigrants. These policies may lead immigrants to be more free and equal citizens, as well as their exclusion altogether. In this direction, since Spain is an EU country where different national minorities live together and receive intense immigration, border and integration policies towards immigrants have been an important issue for Spain. Spain wants to build a multicultural society and to integrate refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants and minorities into the society. In addition to this, Spain has always welcomed refugees, asylum seekers, minorities and immigrants, in addition to the general situation that migration is a global phenomenon due to various reasons and that almost every country in the world is the target of migration flows. A study published by the Pew Research Center last month showed Spain as the most pro-immigrant European country. 86 percent of adults in Spain are positive about the acceptance of people fleeing violence and war into the country. Based on this situation, we want to show that with our project we want to carry out Spain's policies to reintegrate refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants and minority individuals into the society and set a good example for other countries. At the same time, we aim to raise awareness of local people and young people who will be included in our dissemination and sustainability works with our project activities. In this awareness that they will gain, we ask people who are in the minority to turn them into a sensitivity towards their struggle for life. Project Objectives 1-To carry out studies that will raise both individual and social awareness about refugees, asylum seekers, immigrants and individuals with minority status, and to contribute to the work carried out, 2-To raise awareness about the living conditions of refugees, immigrants, asylum seekers and minorities and the difficulties they face, 3-To improve our capacity and expand our working areas by cooperating with national and international non-governmental organizations, 4-To work for the end of policies and inhumane treatment that cause refugees, 5-Protecting all kinds of legal rights of refugees and asylum seekers and ensuring that they lead a life decent to human dignity, 6-To encourage states and international organizations to cooperate in order to resolve problems related to refugees urgently and effectively, 7-To raise social awareness about meeting the legal and social needs of people displaced due to their religion, race, ethnic origin, social group and political views, 8-To increase common sense and awareness about refugees and their rights both in Spain and internationally, 9-To inform non-governmental organizations and public institutions about statistical data, needs analysis and migration tendency, 10-To ensure that local and public resources are mobilized for the benefit of asylum seekers and immigrants, 11-To ensure the support of the public regarding refugees, to prevent intolerance, 12-To raise social awareness about global problems, 13-To raise awareness about participating in voluntary work to solve global problems or to improve these problems, 14-To raise awareness of people about the opportunities provided by Erasmus Plus Programs, 15-To contribute to the distance of individuals from racist, discriminatory and prejudiced attitudes, 16-Contributing to people's awareness of the importance of intercultural interaction and communication, 17-To raise awareness among individuals about concepts such as ensuring equal opportunity, inclusion and social equality, 18-Organizing activities that strengthen social cohesion and public peace and increase social awareness In addition, we want both our participants and our target audience to raise awareness about Digital Transformation, Environmental Sustainability, Inclusion and Diversity, which are among the main goals and priorities of Erasmus Plus. We believe that with the cultural activities, socialization games and group work activities in our project activities, our participants will be purified from their prejudices, move away from racist attitudes and cultural tolerance will be ensured in line with our target audience's goal of Inclusion and Diversity through our outdoor activities and dissemination activities. We aim to raise awareness about the fight against the climate crisis with Environmental Sustainability. We believe that with Digital Transformation, our participants will gain skills in using digital tools.
