Summary
The general objective of the topic is to lead to more effective language learning for migrant children involving local stakeholders, including school, NGOs, local and regional authorities and migrant-led organisations.
This can be achieved through the following specific objectives:
- providing adapted and balanced language reception/introduction classes for both children;
- creating an inclusive school culture and maintaining and building on languages of migrant learners spoken at home
- developing a favourable environment for migrants’ inclusion in non-formal and informal education.
Detailed Call Description
Proposals should include one or more of the following activities (non-exhaustive list):
- activities to mobilise local support and build strong partnerships between key stakeholders, such as national and local authorities, local communities, sport education institutions, sport institutions, diasporas and foundations;
- conferences and workshops to develop relevant methodology and exchanges of good practices on language learning for migrant children in formal, nonformal and informal education;
- pilot projects and upscaling activities of good practices on language learning in formal, non-formal and informal education;
- coaching, mentoring activities, and so called “buddy” system, with or without a linguistic component;
- dissemination and network building among stakeholders;
- training on for example how language learning can be differentiated and more effective (depending on the needs and specificities of the migrants e.g. age, academic level, work-specific vocabulary) for stakeholders, like school staff, sport and culture local organisations;
- activities related to the involvement of diaspora, particularly in the role of facilitator. These activities can include intermediary actors and cultural mediators (including knowledge building of migrant-led organisations);
- activities directed at / involving migrant parents.
Taking into account the transnational aspect of the topic, actions could also foster joint activities between partners in different Member States, such as:
- peer-to-peer learning between organisations;
- activities to develop or adapt common tools and toolkits for effective language training in different environments and for different target groups (children/young adults/parents) on the basis of modern methods taking into consideration the wealth of existing material.
