Context/Background of the projectSocio-political background: due to the refugee crisis, the European population is confronted with an ambivalent and highly complex social construction process. The refugees/migrants hope for integration, safety and an economic recovery in the European host countries. In the process conflicts seem to be inevitable, when diverse ethnic and cultural – religious heterogeneity and different norms and values – make contact. In this current ambivalent societal construction process the European societies change, as well as implicitly their socio-economic and education pollical impose suppositions of diverse (new) demands towards the communes, the city government and the education system. Intercultural competences become a skill and a quality feature for professional behaviour. The project wants to react to this new situation. Especially in the education sector (regular school, training facilities, and universities) new innovative structures in the organization are required and regarding educational content to establish, understand general conditions for an intercultural dialogue as a potential to handle the societal challenges. Education political purpose and demand:The project contributes to integrate marginalised groups and especially asylum seekers into society, train the intercultural perception of all persons involved, prepare them for the working life and lay foundations for international understanding. Objectives:Development of an innovative method tool, which is developed cooperatively by European partner organisations, offering a sustainable training program in psycho-social, pedagogic and economic learning fields within the migration and refugee movement. It is orientated on I. the dialogical learning of Paulo Freire, II. Intercultural education, III. Language training, IV. Vocational training, V. Consultation/Coaching. With the help of such a method tool already existing methodical/didactic approaches should be reflected, compared, adjusted and extended with new methodical approaches according to the target group. At the same time the four training activities (workshops) which took place in the two-year project were evaluated qualitatively and quantitatively and a report was written on the process. Number and profile of the participating institutions: 5 Partner institutions were involved: Volkshochschule Vaterstetten e.V (Volk High School Vaterstetten) as coordinating organization, Evangelische Hochschule Freiburg (Protestant University Freiburg), the pedagogic and psychologic Faculty of the University of Palermo, Volkshochschule Simmering from Vienna (Volk High School Simmering) and the theatre company Teatro due mondi. The main activities: 5 transnational meetings and 4 five-day workshops took place during the project. Of each institution involves 5 trainers from different disciplines attended the workshops to practice and analyze the presented methods in practice with the aim to transfer what they had learned into their own pedagogic context. The process and the evaluated results were analyzed during the transnational meetings. The project managers protocolled each meeting in written form. The content of the method tool was written analog to the evaluation results. Achieved results and effect:The partner institutions develop an innovative method tool, describing the methods presented in the training activities following the criteria context, target group, aims, transfer and literature. An evaluation report was written on the whole training process. Effect: In the evaluation the 25-30 participants of the workshops composed the central elements and principles of the learned methods. Their competences and skills of self-reflection of their pedagogic approach and the transfer of lessons learned in different educational contexts improved. The group dynamic during the whole process was very positive so that the participants began to spread the interim results in the course of the project. The workshop participants were obligated to keep a learning diary which helped the exchange of experiences and the evaluation. One partner institution was responsible for the creation of a project-website. Long-term benefit: Due to the planned and already started dissemination activities the developed innovative methods will be useful to a variety of trainers of different disciplines and different educational institutions (training facilities, universities, regular schools and institutions nurturing creativity).
