🌱 ROOTS & ROUTES IS LIVE — and our first international exchange meeting is next week
"Education and Inclusion for Young Migrants in Europe · Erasmus+ KA210-YOU"
We are thrilled to officially launch "Roots & Routes" — a transnational Erasmus+ KA210-YOU project bringing together three organisations from Italy, Portugal and Spain around a shared conviction: no young person should grow up without opportunities, a sense of belonging, or the support they need to build a meaningful future.
🤝 The Partnership
Roots & Routes unites three organisations with years of experience in non-formal education, youth inclusion and intercultural work:
🇮🇹 POLIS Cooperativa Sociale (Fano / Pesaro, Italy) — lead coordinator, 15 years of experience in educational centres, youth programmes and social inclusion. In October 2025, POLIS opened "Comunità Educativa Terraferma", a residential community welcoming unaccompanied foreign minors — the living laboratory at the heart of this project. www.poliscoop.net
🇵🇹 Assoc. Magnólia Method (Lisboa, Portugal) — partner and dissemination lead, 25 years of experience in non-formal education, creative methodologies, intercultural labs and empowerment programmes for vulnerable youth and families. www.magnolia-method.com
🇪🇸 AIIJ – Iniciativa Internacional Joven (Málaga, Spain) — partner, 22 years of experience in Erasmus+ projects, youth mobility, intercultural citizenship and active participation programmes. www.aiij.org
👥 Who is coming to Italy
18 professionals are travelling to Fano for the first transnational meeting — educators, social workers, youth workers, project coordinators and facilitators from the three partner organisations. All confirmed, flights booked, ready to work.
Each participant brings their own national experience in working with young migrants.
A special thanks to our participants
