In EU countries, there is a significant discrepancy concerning the topic of integration into a country.
FEMALE REFUGEES benefit much LESS than male refugees from educational and counseling programs for their INTEGRATION and INCLUSION.
Education, health, culture, employement etc, are some of the areas women face significant barriers every day.
The HERoic Tracks project:
Tackles this subject by focusing on tracking and improving learning outcomes and integration experiences for female refugees, paving the way for TAILORED and IMPACTFUL education and support systems.
The project is running from September 2024 till April 2027, coordinated by IGITEGO (Sweden) with partners from Austria, Bulgaria, France, Italy, Lithuania and Slovenia
The target group
Female refugees or similar status who have undergone integration, education and counselling programmes.
Structures that are active in the initial reception of refugees and the design and offer of educational and counseling services
