Abstract

The Empowerment & Migration project seeks to highlight the ways in which migrants find a place for themselves in the new country of residence. This integration can take many forms: finding a stable job, placing children in local schools, joining an association, playing in a sports team, contributing to the social welfare system, taking the new nationality, doing volunteer work, participating in the democratic process, etc.

In establishing the E&M project, we place our professional experience and our personal commitment to the plurality of today’s world by engaging in a debate on the presence of migrants in today’s society.
