Participation in the IDEAL-M programme
The Greek Forum of Migrants is participating to the programme IDEAL-M (Informant Diasporas in EurAfrica for Legal Migration) co-funded by the AMIF European Union programme.
IDEAL-M
Informant Diasporas in EurAfrica for Legal Migration
The Project IDEAL-M aims to raise awareness about the dangers of illegal migration and misinformation about the journey to Europe as well as the actual conditions when reaching the hosting countries. It will focus on Senegal as a country of origin and would assess the needs of Senegalese people when arriving in European countries, especially Germany where there is a higher concentration of people from that origin.
-
Highlight the potentials for legal migration;
-
Provide actual information for those people who might be interested in migrating, through mobilisation of diaspora communities already settled in Europe. Are additional; objectives of the project.
As part of this information is controlled by smuggling groups, IDEAL-M aims to build upon this information by raising awareness of the actual risks of smuggling and of irregular migration and developing a counter-narrative in a wider range of media through campaigning and use of digital media and local press.
The project will assess the needs of migrants at local level and also the potential of diaspora communities in Europe but essentially in the partner countries.
IDEAL-M will develop in three phases:
-
Needs assessment and evaluation of media channels for effective campaigning;
-
Implementation phase where campaigning information will be designed and executed with tailor-made messages per target groups and utilise CSOs in Senegal as a supporting mechanism for dissemination and finally;
-
Creation of a wider network for possible collaboration that will touch upon policy levels and sustain campaigning dissemination.
The project is Funded by the European Union under the call Asylum Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF).
