Newsletter Evropského integračního portálu - č. 88
Níže naleznete první letošní newsletter Evropského integračního portálu. Z obsahu upozorňujeme na následující informace:
Výzkumné centrum JRC v prosinci zveřejnilo studii srovnávající situaci v oblasti vzdělávání cizinců v zemích EU. Z jejích výstupů plyne, že školou povinní cizinci si ve srovnání se svými spolužáky z majoritního prostředí vedou hůře. Nicméně z hlediska uplatnění na pracovním trhu jsou na tom imigranti lépe než domácí obyvatelstvo s nízkou kvalifikací. Problémem zůstává skutečnost, že i vysoce kvalifikovaní imigranti ve srovnání s majoritou hůře uplatňují své vzdělání a často vykonávají nízkokvalifikovanou práci.
Rada evropských obcí a regionů spolu s Evropskou federací odborových svazů veřejných služeb představila společné principy integrace cizinců, kterým dominuje zaměření na začlenění cizinců na pracovním trhu. Text doporučuje regionálním samosprávám posílit vzdělávání zaměstnanců v oblasti diversity managementu, prosazovat princip rovnosti přístupu ke všem službám, zajistit vstřícné podmínky pro cizince na pracovištích či přehodnotit procedurální bariéry a náborové procesy. Na evropské úrovni je dle dokumentu potřeba zajistit, aby evropská legislativa upravující práva zahraničních pracovníků platila ve všech členských zemích či upravit aktuální operační programy financované ESF tak, aby z nich bylo možné ve větší míře financovat opatření na podporu začlenění imigrantů na pracovní trh a zapojit je do sociálního dialogu.
Aktuální grantové výzvy:
Social and labour market integration of refugees – výzva Evropské komise v rámci Programu EU pro zaměstnanost a sociální inovace na projekty podporující zrychlený přístup uprchlíků na pracovní trh. Deadline: 30.3.2017.
Integration of Third-Country Nationals – výzva v rámci Azylového a integračního fondu (AMIF) zaměřená na 1. podporu aktivní účasti imigrantů ve vzdělávání, sportovních, kulturních a společenských aktivitách a na rozhodovacím procesu; 2. předodjezdovou a popříjezdovou podporu integrace relokovaných či přesídlených žadatelů o mezinárodní ochranu. Deadline: 28.2.2017.
Framework Partnership Agreement with a European policy network in the field of education of children and young people with a migrant background – výzva Generálního ředitelství pro Vzdělávání a kulturu (DG EAC) na podporu evropské sítě organizací pro spolupráci v oblasti vzdělávání dětí a mladistvých s migračním původem. Deadline: 22.2.2017.

New Integration Network takes off with first meeting
The National Contact Points on Integration have undergone a make-over to become the European Integration Network - EIN, which has a stronger coordination role and mutual learning mandate. The first meeting of the Network took place on 11 and 12 October 2016 in Brussels. Topics discussed
Educational outcomes and immigrant background
Results from this publication by the Joint Research Center show that, in general, children with immigrant background across the EU tend to perform worse than their native counterparts, and this gap seems to remain throughout adulthood. The research report also highlights the potential role of schools, vocational training and policies in improving their educational situation. Read more
