Today, it is by far the most attractive destination for migrants in post-communist Central and Eastern Europe. Most of them come from Ukraine, Vietnam and Russia. The Czech Republic has a history of helping refugees -  many citizens from the former Yugoslavia applied for asylum in the 1990s. Despite partial successes in the field of integration (such as regional integration centres), Czech integration policy still lacks services on a local level, nor does it target all types of migrants in various life situations.]]> 2021-10-12 09:06:30 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810144028 https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810146673 Italy has the 3rd largest migrant population in Europe. It has just over 5 million registered foreign residents, which makes up 8.4 percent of Italy’s population. Roughly 3.6 million of are non-EU citizens.

Also, foreigners in Prague and the Central Bohemian Region make up half of all foreign nationals in the entire Czech Republic. Prague has always been a multicultural capital for centuries and even today retains its truly diverse character! Every year, the Czech Republic becomes a new home for an increasing number of foreigners and thus many municipal and non-governmental services and organisations helping migrants are concentrated here.]]> 2021-10-12 09:25:31 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810181123 https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810181822 A non-governmental organisation based in Palermo, founded in 2001. It contributes to growth and development through the active participation of people, civil society and institutions, always valuing individuals and diversity. As their vision states: “The world is only one creature.” Their work is inspired by the legacy of Danilo Dolci, an Italian sociologist and thinker. It focuses its work on the research of social needs and challenges and the use of innovative learning approaches. In this way, CESIE actively connects research with action through the use of formal and non-formal learning methodologies. CESIE is currently implementing over 120 projects in more than 80 countries!]]> 2021-10-12 09:25:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810181822 https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810183735 Vetlanda Lärcentrum is a municipal adult education where all levels of education are put under one roof.

It aims to sustain social cohesion and diversity in society with the help of civic education. The organisation provides educational activities for migrants, but also activities aiming to strengthen the mutual rapport between mainly Prague citizens and newly arrived migrants. The DEC provides educational activities, mainly Czech language courses, but also informal leisure events that facilitate active engagement in society!]]> 2021-10-12 09:28:25 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810186563 https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810187465 Palermo, the capital of Sicily is famous for its local street markets and varied architecture. Palermo is a bridge between Africa and Europe and one of the first destinations where migrants and refugees arrive in Europe. Once perceived as the Mafia’s hometown, it is now a “capital of rights, welcoming, tolerance, and culture". Few Italian cities appear as welcoming to migrants as Palermo. With residents from 127 countries and an immigrant population that has almost tripled in nearly two decades, to 24,000, Palermo is Italy's most ethnically and socioculturally diverse city. Palermo therefore offers a rich array of local policies and initiatives benefiting migrants.]]> 2021-10-12 09:28:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810187465 lisaferradaandersson https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810218968 2021-10-12 09:46:23 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810218968 sarka5 https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810295353 2021-10-12 10:28:52 UTC https://padlet.com/lisaferradaandersson/ls2oyjwdn5giipwu/wish/1810295353
