Transnational Collaboration on Bullying, Migration and Integration at School Level (TRIBES)

 

 

Project no.: CA18115

Project description:

With immigration a growing, permanent and fractious part of the EU’s reality, integration is the foremost concern for European policy-makers. Schools are recognized as an essential part of social stability and a key aspect of integration policy at the national and EU levels. School safety, building inclusion, and preventing bullying for all students are central to integration and well-being. Yet, in the face of a far more diverse society, schools face challenges that they are essentially not currently supported for. The scientific measures of school safety used today are outdated. They do not reflect a modern, multi-cultural, multi-faith Europe, while school communities work in a fragmented manner in inclusion and bullying prevention. This proposed COST Action aims to: enhance collaboration between stakeholders to update, enhance and pilot new ‘real world’ scientific measures and approaches, collate evaluated interventions and approaches around inclusion and bullying prevention to disseminate a comprehensive program/handbook for schools, and a guideline for authorities, building capacity and working holistically towards ensuring the integration, safety and well-being of all students in EU secondary schools, to aid in the social stability of both the individual and society.
