What for?
General objective: To promote the integration of third-country nationals—migrants, refugees, or beneficiaries of international protection residing in Portuguese territory.
Specific objectives:
1. Give them a voice through language learning, based on beginner Portuguese courses, levels A1+A2, and intercultural conversation groups;
2. Give a voice to TCNs in situations of greater vulnerability, through individualized support, mentoring sessions, and coordination with other CLAIM and services, based on the needs identified by the beneficiary;
3. Give voice through art and culture, promoting socio-cultural activities and visits, but also empowering them to tell their own experiences and life stories in video and photographic format – building their own migratory narratives, which will result in a short documentary and a final exhibition.
