Second Generation of European Migrants - 2GEM
2GEM is the acronym of Second Generation of European Migrants project, a KA204 Strategic Partnerships for adult education, within the Erasmus+ programme.
The main goal of the 2GEM project is to equip second-generation migrants with skills, competences, and knowledge necessary to act as intercultural workers within their community by building on their unique cultural assets. As such, they will be able to serve as a link between the migrant community and local people, thereby contributing to better integration of the newcomers, and the first-generation migrants.

Improving and extending the supply of high quality learning opportunities for adults;
Extending and developing the competences of educators and other personnel who support adult learners;
