European Project Supporting Refugees Integration in HEIs

The Second Transnational Meeting

Pixel organized and coordinated the second meeting of the European project entitled Together – Innovative European Learning Path to Facilitate the Access of Refugees to HE, which took place online – using the Big Blue Button web platform – on 1 September 2020. The European project entitled Together was funded by the European Commission in the framework of the Erasmus+ Programme, KA2 – Strategic Partnerships for Higher Education. The Together project has been written and coordinated by Pixel in cooperation with the project applicant and scientific coordinator IUS Gentium Conimbrigae based in Coimbra (Portugal). The aim of the Together project is to develop social responsibility of Higher Education students providing them with intercultural and civic competences, raising their awareness on integration of refugees issues and having them working together with refugees and stakeholders of the third sector (NGOs) in order to play their potential key role in making University more inclusive. During the second meeting, the European project partners finalized the first intellectual output, the Refugees Welcome Map, and organized the national focus groups to be realized. In addition, the second intellectual output, the Training Package for Students, was presented to all the European project partners.
