- Advocate for policy changes: Influence policymakers and decision-makers by sharing project outcomes and recommendations to address discrimination and promote social inclusion in relevant policies and practices.
Activities:
Kick-off Meeting in Lithuania | March 2024
The project started with a kick-off meeting in Lithuania on March 18, 2024, bringing together 6 participants from France, Türkiye, and Lithuania. Partners gathered to define the project objectives, timeline, and responsibilities. During the meeting, participants discussed key challenges related to digital inclusion and migrants, set deadlines, and planned the implementation of project activities.
Needs Assessment and Survey | Spring 2024
A comprehensive needs assessment was conducted with 15 participants through pre- and post-surveys among participants to identify key challenges, misconceptions, and attitudes towards migrants and refugees. The results highlighted gaps in digital skills, awareness, and confidence in discussing social inclusion topics, which helped shape the content of the workshops and training activities.
Storytelling Workshops in France | July 2024
International storytelling workshops took place in Strasbourg, France from July 24 to 27, 2024, bringing together 15 participants from partner organisations. During the workshops, participants explored personal narratives related to migration and social inclusion.

The workshops also included collaboration with professionals working in the field of migration.
Video Production and Graphic Design Training in Türkiye | November 2024
A training activity in Türkiye took place in Serik-Antalya from November 16 to 21, 2024, bringing together 19 participants.
