Social Integration Support and Employment of Marginalised Groups
Project Description:
Asylum seekers are a group the most at risk from poverty and social exclusion, and belong to the most vulnerable group of migrants. That is why the main goal of this project is to increase the employability of asylum seekers through language and cultural integration programs, individual mentoring, as well as skills training for simple occupations in the tourism and hospitality industry, where there is a worker shortage. All of the above will help them become more competitive on the job market, which will have a positive impact on their successful integration into Croatian society.
