WEMIN is 2-year project that aims at implementing and promoting a pioneering integration model for migrant and refugee women of all ages in the communities involved.

The project will address social, educational, and professional aspects of inclusion in eight countries throughout the European Union.

Led by HELLENIC OPEN UNIVERSITY (Greece), WEMIN puts together nine partners including academic institutions, training institutes, and civil society organizations, from eight EU countries – Greece, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Germany and Sweden.

WEMIN will empower migrant and refugee women to become protagonists of the life of the communities they live in, and act as multipliers within their families and circles.

But the objective is way more ambitious - by promoting a close interaction between women of the host and migrant societies, stereotypes on both sides will be tackled, challenging existing narratives on migration and strengthening the very communities involved.
