MIRACLE

MIRACLE is two-year Comenius multilateral project, part-funded by the European Commission’s Lifelong Learning Programme. The main objective of the project is to develop an advanced training on the subject of political and intercultural competencies of elementary school teachers. The long term goal is to improve the in-class motivation of children with a migratory background by which their integration into the host society will be facilitated. In MIRACLE, this will be achieved by incorporating professional content from within the field of EU and national migration and asylum politics as well as the teachers’ reflections on their own attitudes into one coherent teaching approach. Moreover, by applying this methodology elementary school kids will be introduced to the concept of European Citizenship at an early stage.
