Project coordinator

Åbo Akademi University

This project aims to reduce the barriers to integration by focusing on education, language learning, and cultural mediation by transforming schools into inclusive hubs through developing a whole school and community program. The objective is to improve the quality and availability of information and improve access to quality education by developing the capacity of schools, migrant students and families, and local actors to support inclusive education. The schools will work closely with migrant families, external coaches, and the community to provide support, and services including cultural mediation, and simple training courses in the areas of language, health, for example, COVID-19. The project uses a “multi-stakeholder approach” and ensures the involvement of the relevant actors.
