The Thinklusion website reflects the work of the Universidade de Vigo (Spain) within the European project Worldplaces-Workplaces working for women’s integration (GAP-101038328), whose main mission is the social and labor inclusion of vulnerable migrant women. Several European institutions in Italy, Portugal, Greece, Austria, Belgium and Spain proactively collaborate to achieve this objective.
Worldplaces brings together companies, non-profit and public sector organizations that are committed to providing tools to facilitate the inclusion of low-skilled migrant women in the workforce based on four pillars: training and leadership; interpersonal skills; language and culture; and identity and self-confidence.
The University of Vigo contributes to the Worldplaces project with a multidisciplinary team composed of researchers from the atlanTTic research group (Vigo) and the Faculty of Education and Social Work (Ourense). Check our profiles below.
