Rome, Italy
General aim and specific objectives
The general aim of the CCaD training course is to promote in our societies a positive approach and
attitude towards the inclusion of young migrant women.
Through its implementation, we would like to achieve the following specific objectives:
• To favour the inclusion of young migrant women over 18 in our societies overcoming stereotypes
and prejudices
• Equipping youth workers with instruments and competences to favour the inclusion of young
migrant women
• To develop civil courage skills to contrast discrimination practices at local level
• To exchange good practices on the inclusion of young migrant women, creating local networks to
support it.
The project CCaD will contribute to the awareness raising of participants and their organisations to
sensitive issues related to young migrant women across Europe. Through the training course we will
equip youth workers with competences and new methods, such as civil courage approaches, to be
used in their work and local environment for contrasting discrimination against young migrant
women and to favour their inclusion.
