PREFACE Migration and Refugee: Europe's opportunity to build interculturalism (2016-3-ES02-KA105-008750) was designed to generate a comprehensive training course on how to address the inclusion of young migrants and refugees. Youth workers from Greece, Italy, and Spain exchanged good practices, strategies and tools for successfully working with young migrants and refugees.

!

At the same time, the project achieved to create a network of European youth leaders working directly with young migrants and refugees, where they are able to share experiences, learnings and advice on how to achieve the inclusion of young migrants and refugees at the educational, labor, social and cultural levels.

!

On the other hand, the youth workers were able to think about ways to disseminate their work and the positive aspects of migration in their respective localities. This is a way to create awareness in the host communities and, at the same time, eradicate stereotypes that, unfortunately, are still rooted in our societies.

It is important to thank the Erasmus+ Programme, the Youth Institute of Spain and the Youth Institute of Castilla y Leรณn, who without them this project would not have seen the light.

!

As well as the numerous entities and decision-makers in the field of youth and migration. San Estanislao Kostka School (Salamanca), Acoge Salamanca, ACCEM Salamanca, Eduardo Carazo (Director of the Youth Institute of Castilla y Leรณn), and Cristina Klimowitz (Councillor of Family and Equality of Opportunities of the City of Salamanca).

!

And, specially, to the 12 youth workers who were the protagonists of this project (specially during the training course celebrated in Salamanca, between 23-29th October, 2017).

!

With all this, we hope to contribute to the development of a more inclusive Europe.

!

Yours sincerely,

CLUE

It’s very common in Salamanca, that when waiting for a person, you wait for them “UNDER THE CLOCK”.

TASK

Miguel de Unamuno, from the beginning of his residency in Salamcana, was an active participant in cultural life, and he was constantly present on the terrace of the Novely Café, next to the city call, a custom that was maintained until 1936. He described this location as: “A four sided room. Irregular, but surprisingly harmonic”. Find his medallion, and all the group must take a selfie with him.

CLUE

This remains as the place of residence for the Dominicans.

TASK

The doctrine of Maestro Francisco de Vitoria, both in its philosophical foundation and in its legal application, has given important contributions —with its slight differences—to the global human rights movement. Take a group photo with Francisco de Vitoria.
