The ACT Positive project is an Erasmus+ KA2 project where our company participates, scheduled to run from September 2020 to August 2022.
The Act Positive project wants to promote equal opportunities and inclusion of second-generation migrants into education and mainly in the labour market by providing tools for training and empowerment.
As an overall result, the ACT POSITIVE project will contribute to the development of an innovative approach to enhance resilience and utilize the strengths of European second-generation migrants, based on the positive psychology theory.
The target group will undertake an e-learning path that will empower them and will assist them in developing the personal resources needed to adapt to potentially stressful events. By developing those personal resources and competences, the target group will also be able to utilise key Positive Psychology constructs and processes so as to use potential stressors as opportunities for positive growth.
The objectives of the project are:
1) To increase quality in the VET education programs that are offered in order to improve and develop learners’ employability skills based on the theory and approach of positive psychology;
2) To upgrade employability skills and competences of unemployed 2nd generation migrants;
3) To increase awareness of the multiple benefits that increasing the employability of 2nd generation migrants can bring to local societies and economies;
4) To enhance interaction among practice, research and policy in the field of vocational training;
5) To promote the issue of migrants’ social inclusion through action that promote their inclusion into education and, mainly, employment at a European level.
