INTEGRA - Migrants' Integrating Kit - Basic Language for Dealing with Financial Matters

Ever heard of financial integration? If it‘s important for you (as migrant) to integrate with the local community of your new home country, then the Migrant Integration Kit developed during the INTEGRA project contains financial terminology, a financial glossary, and sources of financial information that will assist you by equipping you with the most useful social and financial phrases which can be helpful in unfamiliar situations in a new country. The INTEGRA project answers one of the vital needs of emigrants who benefit from work and travel mobility in new political and economic conditions, which is the need to communicate and to solve survival issues among which the financial ones come top of the list. The INTEGRA project (http://integra-project.eu) brought together partners from 11 countries (LT, GR, DE, ES, TR, IE, NL, RO, GB, PL and BY) who worked together with social partners such as migrant communities and financial institutions from a range of different European countries to create a Europe wide network of relevant institutions in order to reach migrants in partner countries to improve their integration into local society by providing them with opportunities to gain language skills on basic financial matters. The first steps for their language integration into the new society is made through an non formal approach, based on open interaction, simulation scenarios, improvisation and creative use of the learning materials, permanent exchange of questions and answers, reflection time and feedback opportunities.
