The EmpowerHer project Kick-off Meeting was successfully done in Leipzig, Germany, on December 16-17, 2024. The project brought together six organizations from five countries—Germany, France, Cyprus (COMCY), Spain, and Portugal—to launch this Erasmus+ initiative focused on empowering migrant women through skills development and integration into the labor market. Over two days, participants collaborated, shared insights, and planned the next steps for creating inclusive onboarding environments and bridging the skills gap for migrant women across Europe.
Our target groups include migrant women, adult educators, and employers (managers, HR experts). The project will produce a range of outputs, including:
- A training program and educational resources for adult educators.
- A user-friendly gaming web app designed to enhance practical learning for migrant women.
- An onboarding toolbox for labor market stakeholders to foster inclusive environments.
- Community events to inform migrant women about job opportunities.
- Awareness campaigns to challenge stereotypes and raise awareness of the project’s resources.
We extend our thanks to all the partners for their warm hospitality and collaboration in making this first milestone possible. We look forward to the next stages of the EmpowerHer project! As we continue to refine our plans, the next steps include reviewing training modules, testing the web app, and preparing for the first round of training in Cyprus.
Stay tuned as we continue to work together to make a difference for migrant women across Europe!
