Topic

Integration of migrants and refugees

Edit 14 February 2019

Read CURANT's 3rd project journal!

With 39 duos of young refugees and local buddies already cohabitating, the delivery of the new modular housing units and a wide range of active inclusion measures being tested, the CURANT project is progressing at full speed in its implementation phase.

UIA Expert Fabio Sgaragli provides an update of the recent developments in Antwerp. In this issue of the Journal, the Expert also focuses on the initial learning points from the experimental phase and how these are relevant to help defining the conditions for the long-term sustainability of the CURANT approach. These lessons are placed in a wider context and considered as part of a new social innovation model.
