The year 2015 ended with a record number of people forced to flee from their country because of war, famine and poverty: according to the UNO’ High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the refugees in the world are more than 60 millions. In 2015, according to Frontex data, the illegal entries in Europe were more than 1.5 million, five times more than the 280,000 in 2014.The migration crisis in the Mediterranean has put the spotlight on immediate needs, but also highlighted many of the structural limits of the EU's migration policy and the instruments at its disposal. The EU Directives n. 2013/33/EU and n. 2013/32/EU on the immigration politics, introduce important new features including the easier entry into the labor market, the duration of the Residence Permit, new system of first and second reception, the reduction of the timing for the examination procedure of the asylum application. Nevertheless, the access to the working conditions vary from state to state and there are no homogeneous measures of intervention and social integration, although last year the reception's theme entered in the policy Agenda, pushing national governments to intervene.In May 2015, the European Commission stresses the need to reduce the causes of irregular migration and to establish a system of redistribution in the EU countries (Agenda Juncker of the 05.13.2015); Italy, however, and the partner countries are among the most exposed to migratory flows and continue to deal with the difficulty of finding lasting solutions in the field of asylum.The project aims to photograph the state of the reception system of refugees in Europe (supported by the EU Regulation 516/2014) and to provide a system for the sharing of effective practice, observed and produced by the partnership. The project aims to develop innovative methodologies and tools to enable European practitioners, who carry out services for the social and economic inclusion of asylum seekers, to work effectively with them.The project will define the competence profile of the practitioner working with refugees, the Divise for the validation of skills acquired in formal, non-formal and informal contexts, in connection with ECVET principles, and will produce an OER, in addition to the Report of best practices that can be use for the social and work inclusion of refugees, the Common System of Procedures for the recognition of qualifications and a report of training needs analysis. Two training courses, face to face and in e-learning, will be described and tested. It will produce Guidelines to improve the practices of social and work inclusion of refugees.The project consortium is composed by 8 organizations from 6 EU countries that assist refugees and asylum seekers in different ways with reception, guidance and training activities and job placement: 2 training and employment agencies, 1 public authority which manages local network of refugees’ reception, 2 non-profit organizations that deal with reception services and social and work integration of migrants, 3 private organizations that deal with research and innovative teaching. They want to promote the use, test and implementation of ECVET system by applying it to the qualification of the practitioners working with refugees. The eight organizations work with refugees in different countries and in different settings; ECVET will be the common term of reference (a common language) to describe what they do and standardize their training and assessment methodologies for practitioners working with refugees.The Guidelines for the inclusion of refugees, validated by the consortium, represent the common term of reference to standardize the methodologies and techniques of social and work inclusion of refugees.Thanks to the project 13,000 members of target groups will be informed about the project, and more than5,640 learners and 280 trainers will be involved in it at different levels.
