EIBE: Successfully Towards Inclusion

Project Decription

Due to their double marginalisation, girls with a migration history in particular need safe spaces where they can exchange experiences with other children and receive support in strengthening their abilities, talents, and identity.

The project aims to develop, test, and evaluate corresponding empowerment spaces based on the following research question: What design and quality features must empowerment spaces for girls with a migration history at primary schools have in order to increase their agency and opportunities for participation through positive self-relations?

In addition, the project examines the design and quality features of qualification measures for educators and teachers, as well as the associated training and support materials, which are intended to ensure diversity-sensitive and discrimination-critical facilitation of the empowerment spaces. To answer these questions, corresponding qualification measures and materials are developed, tested, and evaluated.

Throughout the entire project period, the participatory involvement of all stakeholders is a central focus, in order to take into account and include the widest possible range of diverse and intersectional perspectives. In this regard, the project benefits from the advisory expertise of its practice partners, such as the Centre for Migration and Education, Campus Asyl e.V., and the “dialogUS” school network.

In the long term, the project aims to develop corresponding quality standards to increase educational participation and opportunities for girls and women with a family migration history. Beginning with the first school attended jointly by all children, the project seeks to support girls with a family migration history on their path towards becoming self-confident adults who use their talents and strengths and actively participate in shaping migration society.
