EVA vzw (BE) – a social innovator in the social economy – is looking for European partners for the ESF project “Culture-sensitive Care ambassadors – Valorizing talents+”.

This project aims to make the potential of informal caregivers with migrant roots visible and valorized in order to improve their transfer to training and job opportunities within the professional care. This should be made via a model structured according to three paths: individual coaching, training in group, and workplace learning.

The reason behind the development of this project is linked to the diversification in the society, where the potential of people with a migrant background is a much overlooked feature. Nevertheless, the use of that potential, for example in the healthcare sector, can help to provide better healthcare for elderly people. In fact, it has been identified that the classical systems within the area of education and employment impede the access for people with this potential, although the need for professionals who can operate in a super-diverse context is high. This project aims to face this problem in order to foster the creation of care ambassadors by valorizing talents.

If you wish to work within this topic, please get in touch with us by 16th February!
