In the framework of the “Seeds for Integration” project, the Organising Bureau of European School Student Unions (OBESSU) has launched the Seeds for Integration Grants.
The aim is to provide seed-funding to secondary school students on local, regional or national level to empower them to implement initiatives aimed at enhancing the integration of refugee students and pupils with migration background.
Objectives

– foster and support initiatives of school students that are empowering their peers with migration background to share with the school community their experiences and the challenges they face in the field of education, thus raising awareness to the issues refugeeand migrant pupils might encounter during their everyday life.
– build closer ties between the communities’ migrant students are coming from and the school community.
