Expanding Social Orientation & Integration for Newcomers in Rural Areas in Europe (SHARE SIRA)
The SHARE SIRA project, implemented from January 2021 to December 2022 and co-funded by the European Union’s Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF), fosters inclusive territorial approaches in rural areas in Europe, which are playing an increasingly important role in receiving newcomers. The project strengthens and expands the social orientation and overall integration of newcomers in 10 rural territories in France, Greece, Poland and Spain, through innovative approaches involving active participation of local communities, including refugees and migrants themselves, and piloting of grassroots social orientation actions.
