Active Citizens Partnership

When thousands of people risk their lives to cross borders, it reminds us that migration is not just a political issue—it is a human one.
The recent arrivals in Ceuta, where many migrants swam across the border from Morocco, highlight the complex realities of irregular migration and the urgent need for accurate information, cooperation, and respect for human dignity.

At SAFE FUTURE, an AMIF-funded project, we believe that misinformation and false narratives can place people at even greater risk. Our project works to better understand migration-related narratives, identify disinformation, and support evidence-based communication that empowers people to make informed decisions.
Through research, stakeholder engagement, and collaboration with local communities and organisations, SAFE FUTURE aims to strengthen public awareness and contribute to safer, more responsible communication on migration.
Migration is a shared European challenge that requires solidarity, reliable information, and the protection of fundamental rights.
Together, we can promote informed dialogue instead of misinformation.

The Safe Future project has officially started!
We were pleased to hold the first coordination meeting for the SAFE FUTURE project with our partners from the Iraqi Institution for Development (IID) in Mosul.
The meeting focused on planning IID’s key role in supporting the project through community engagement, misinformation mapping, culturally adapted awareness content, legal literacy activities, and outreach to vulnerable youth and families across Iraq.

Together, we discussed the next steps to ensure that project activities are locally relevant, inclusive, and responsive to the needs of Iraqi communities. Through close collaboration, SAFE FUTURE will strengthen access to reliable information, promote legal migration pathways, and build resilience against misinformation.

We look forward to a productive partnership and the positive impact we will create together.

Today, ACP proudly participated in the online preparatory meeting for the upcoming Kick-Off Meeting of Safe Future: Raising Awareness and Building Resilience Against Irregular Migration, a project funded under the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF) programme.
As a project partner, ACP joined representatives from partner organisations across Austria, Germany, France, Portugal, Greece, and Italy to discuss the project's objectives, implementation strategy, and next steps. Together, we are building a strong transnational partnership that will work closely with associated partners in Albania, Serbia, Türkiye, Afghanistan, Egypt, Tunisia, and Iraq.
Safe Future aims to raise awareness of the risks and consequences of irregular migration, strengthen resilience against misinformation, and promote legal, safe, and sustainable migration pathways. Through digital campaigns, community outreach, diaspora engagement, and youth-focused activities, the project will empower young people and vulnerable communities to make informed decisions about their future.
We are excited to contribute to this important AMIF initiative and look forward to the official launch of the project and the collaborative work ahead.

On days like today – International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia – our work towards equality has that much more fortitude.

Too often LGTBIQ+ people - including non-binary persons - are not seen, heard and accepted for who they are.

Work on equality is not only about laws and policies. It’s about people being able to live openly, participate fully and thrive without fear of discrimination or hate.

This is the Europe we should strive to achieve at all times. Open to all. Without exception.

2ο Διακρατικό Διαδικτυακό Σεμινάριο για τα Μικροδιαπιστευτήρια,παρουσίαση των έργων Green Circle, BuildSkills Academy & Mastery Project.
28/05/2026 10:00 CET
ΘΕΜΑ: ΕΠΑΝΑΚΑΤΑΡΤΙΣΗ ΓΙΑ ΤΗΝ ΠΡΑΣΙΝΗ ΜΕΤΑΒΑΣΗ
Τι θα συζητήσουμε:
• Πώς τα έργα Erasmus+ μπορούν να προωθήσουν τη συστημική καινοτομία στην Επαγγελματική Εκπαίδευση και Κατάρτιση (ΕΕΚ), δοκιμάζοντας επεκτάσιμα μοντέλα για την ανάπτυξη πράσινων δεξιοτήτων, μικροδιαπιστευτηρίων και διακρατικής συνεργασίας.

• Τι απαιτεί στην πράξη ο αποτελεσματικός σχεδιασμός μικροδιαπιστευτηρίων: διασφάλιση ποιότητας, μηχανισμοί αναγνώρισης και δυνατότητα φορητότητας μεταξύ διαφορετικών εθνικών συστημάτων προσόντων.

• Ποιοι ευρωπαϊκοί μοχλοί πολιτικής είναι αναγκαίοι για την υποστήριξη της αναβάθμισης δεξιοτήτων (upskilling) και της επανακατάρτισης (reskilling) εργαζομένων χαμηλής και μεσαίας εξειδίκευσης στην πράσινη μετάβαση, ιδιαίτερα σε τομείς όπως οι κατασκευές.
