The focus of the first day of Workshop of the Includ-EU Project will be on how to rethink services in light of crises and raising awareness on the role of design in shaping better and more sustainable services. Abram El-Sabagh, expert in designing strategic solutions for the Sustainable Development Goals, will facilitate the session, in which participants will immerse in a peer-learning exercise, which will help them to brainstorm collectively and identify challenges and opportunities to apply to the concrete specific needs of each regional/local reality. This is followed by a dynamic market-place exercise, where few regions and municipalities will present their own future strategy for integration, but also good practices and successful projects from the past programming period.

Speakers include:

• Rabab Ahmad, Policy and Programme Analyst, Regional Office for the EEA, the EU and NATO, International Organization for Migration (IOM);
• Alessia Rochira (Phd, Social Psychology, University of Salento): Research-based innovation action on immigrant adolescents as culture-brokers in school-families interactions;
• Elisabeth Palmero (Project Coordinator, Equalcity): The Migrant Women & Girls Toolbox, Equalcity Project;
• Giulia Maraviglia (SocioLab); Giuditta Giunti (ANCI Toscana): Service Design for Integration Services.

The workshop is open to all interested stakeholders working on migration and interculturality. To know more about day 2 on Hate Speech, check the Agenda2030 Website.
