The Action programme aims at bringing together immigrant institutions with institutions of the majority society and public institutions. In so called “Tandem projects”, both institutions run joint initiatives in the fields of youth education, anti-discrimination, adult training.
Project Goal
The Action Programme aims at capacity building of immigrant organisations via tight cooperation with experienced public institutions or institutions from the majority society. By using the specific strengths and resources of both institutions the Action Programme moreover aims at a better delivery of services for immigrants and non-immigrants and better cooperation in the neighbourhood.
