Theoretical approach and experiences of the mosaic - project

Abstract

In the opinion of many, integration is seen as being the capacity of minorities to adapt as rapidly and convenient as possible to the habits of the majority. To talk about competences of integration means to look close to the way of society organization and educational systems, to the way in which the media reflects the reality of a society, and the contradictions and difficulties the pro’s encounter in education and public services in their daily life. The European Union gives priority in its policies to the problem of social inclusion that consider it to be an important element for successful economical development. In the context of social inclusion policies, the problem of migration in approached, which will continue to grow. The MOSAIC project approaches the problem of social inclusion through education, in the European context. The results of the research proofs that there is a demand for a higher awareness of the diverse situations in which citizen are found in multi-cultural society.
