Dear Colleagues, Course 07816: Promoting Migrant and Refugee Integration 1 June-12 July 2016 HREA and Migration Policy Group will offer a six-week e-learning course on integration of migrants and refugees. With increasingly more multi-cultural and multi-ethnic societies due to new migration routes, migrant and refugee integration can be a challenge both for host communities as well as for migrant and refugees themselves. Lack of proper integration can lead to the violation of basic human rights as well as social, political and cultural rights. Building a deep understanding of the main issues at stake is vital to developing the technical capacities to address this issue effectively so that all parties of the equation can benefit from migration. This e-learning course focuses on issues related to labour market access, family reunification, access to education and education support programs for migrant children, access to residence permits and nationality, civil and political rights and anti-discrimination policies, and addresses complex matters such as the integration of irregular migrants and especially vulnerable groups. Course outline Week 1. Guiding principles for integration and policies Week 2. The links between immigration and anti-discrimination Week 3. A secure status as the starting point: family reunification and long-term residence Week 4. Access to nationality and political participation Week 5. Support for immigrant adults: employment, education and language courses Week 6. Support for immigrant children: the 1.5 and 2.0 generations For more information and online registration: www.hrea.org/promoting-integration ------------------ Training Coordination HREA-the global human rights education and training centre Lange Noordstraat 1, 4331 CB Middelburg, the Netherlands Tel: +31 (0)118-210138 | Fax: +31 (0)118-655508 E-mail: [log in to unmask] | Web: www.hrea.org/training ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note: The material contained in this communication comes to you from the Forced Migration Discussion List which is moderated by the Refugee Studies Centre (RSC), Oxford Department of International Development, University of Oxford.
