Training course description:

The “MORE intercultural competence” project aims to organize a training course to train education professionals on the management of intercultural conflicts created by a situation of mass migration. Through the educational tool MORE, as a role-playing game, participants will be invited to reflect on the social and personal dynamics underlying migratory processes: prejudices, stereotypes, fears, integration, etc. The game itself will be presented as a useful means of responding to micro-conflict situations that everyone is called upon to manage in their professional environment.

Objectives of the training course are the following:

• Reflect and clarify the concept of individual identity;
• Understand that individual identity connects with collective individuality (us);
• Understand those society-based collective identities delimit an area of inclusion and an area of exclusion (you);
• Recognizing and deconstructing stereotypes and prejudices against foreigners;
• How we acquire information (data) about the topic (which are the sources, media literacy);
• Know how to recognize the difference between data and interpretations on the migrant topic;
• Provide participants with a practical educational tool for contributing to the raising of intercultural awareness in their communities and daily activities
