Enterprise and immigration in EU
The project intends to help employers and employees to understand better the multicultural people they work with. The
origin and sociocultural situation of the countries where the immigrants come from will be taken into account. It is
important to understand these facts when working in a multicultural milieu. The philosophy behind the project is
“knowledge versus ignorance” to help keep Europe at peace and combat racism and xenophobia. Immigrants are
potential workers in all European countries and their employers do not know their languages, culture, traditions, ways
of life etc… Nowadays we can find training courses for immigrants about the culture, language and ways of life of the
countries they have emigrated to, but there are no training courses for employers and colleagues about the culture and
languages of this labour force coming from very different countries in the world.
The aim of the project is to integrate the immigrants better in their jobs and in their new countries through training
courses that can help to have a better mutual understanding of their traditions, ways of thinking and peculiarities.
