Reflection / Action around inclusion and interculturality
It is an innovative project aimed at fostering harmonious relations between cultures and facilitating the integration of immigrants. In partnership with researchers from LABRII (Laboratory for Research in Intercultural Relations) workshops are offered to immigrants and social workers to share their experiences in an intercultural context, to exchange on the promising practices developed in the projects and to concretize the inclusive approach within La Maisonnée’s team.
A source of pleasure, encounters and discoveries at your fingertips!
