More information about the project that was organized in the last months:
Project YOU ARE WELCOME arose from identification of the dangers of xenophobia, intolerance and discrimination arising in Europe, and brought together 10 countries and 13 partners committed to support migrant and refugee integration, community development and promoting evidence–based policy making in the area of migration. The aim of WELCOME was to deconstruct the process of migrants’ stigmatization, help communities involved overcome stereotypes and develop counter narratives for more accurate perceptions of migrants and refugees stemming in participating countries, especially in the UK, Central Europe and countries along the Balkan-route.
Through project activities, in the “How We View Each Other” research phase, WELCOME assessed how hate speech and propaganda arise on fertile ground of economic and security fears in selected communities, and how they contributed to radicalized behaviors both from the indigenous communities and new arrivals. Then, working with representatives of the most affected communities (including third-country nationals legally residing in the EU) during the “Otherness Dialogue” workshop, we have adapted the workshop content and gave them skills to record educational videos and conducted “You and I – We Are Not So Different” workshops, and encouraged dissemination of learning through social action.
The final conference of the project was attended by a delegations from all countries involved in the project – from Germany 
, Greece 
, UK 
, 
and Slovakia 
. There was project manager and one migrant from each country.
