VIW - Voices of Immigrant Women

profile

The VIW project aims to answer to the need of students of developing better knowledge and awareness toward the theme of female migrations considering the interrelation of factors such as: gender, status, ethnicity, age, religion, origin, political opinion. The project also aims to make the Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) more inclusive by promoting a holistic comprehension of the gender issues in migration flows. The project will produce three main outputs: (i) mapping of Case studies of Successful Integration of Women; (ii) an e-learning course preparing students of social sciences to deal with women migrants’ integration; and (iii) a set of policy recommendations providing practically oriented intervention proposal to policy-makers involved at all level in Higher Education and integration of migrants’ policies.
