Informations

Descriptif

What is the role of NGOs in the professional inclusion of migrants? How does the private sector participate in the development of migrant integration policies? How do newcomers themselves participate in this process?

Through case studies and concrete examples of social innovation programs, this course will study the dynamics of private actors influencing public policies. To gain a better understanding of the issue, this course will study representation as a key element to promote sustainable change.

The sessions will cover theoretical concepts and pragmatic cases, putting special attention to the involvement of civil society and the adoption of an intersectional approach when developing migrant integration policies.

Pré-requis
