After the success of the first edition, the Escuela de Ciudadanía for immigrants has returned. Now with more hours of training and full of novelties. The ultimate goal: to promote the empowerment of migrants so that they can be references in the Valencian Territory.
If you are an immigrant or the child of an immigrant, you have experience in collaborating with associative movements, and you want to become a leader to support the immigrant community, this school is the place to do it. A space to train you in the defense of diversity as a social value.
This initiative is led by Jovesólides and the Espai Obert el Marítim and ACOEC, who also participate as partners. Together we work to promote the social inclusion of immigrants and their active participation in Valencian society through training, personal empowerment and positive management of interculturality.
