More about the project
These are our secondary aims:
- To foster collaboration between interdisciplinary experts in the research areas of, sociology, child and social psychology, education, migration, science, technology, and policy, to support a holistic approach to safety, bullying and integration in our school communities to last beyond the life of the Action.
- The co-operative creation of new updated school climate measures to meet modern migrant/ethnicity diversity challenges, enhancing integration, inclusiveness and aiding in the prevention/ reduction of school bullying and violence.
- To establish/analyse on a cross-national basis the state of research/practice/policy with regards to refugee/migrant integration and anti-bullying measures within school communities.
- To better assess the success of approaches to integration and anti-bullying measures to identify effective methods that might be deployed or adapted to provide a more holistic, practical and policy-based approach at a local, national and EU level.
- To create a handbook of interventions and web-based resources for use alongside new school climate measures at a practical level.
- To draw on this research to develop and provide an evidence-driven and deliberated guidelines/ policy advisory document to help highlight areas of concern and effectiveness, and provide recommendations to guide policy makers and society.
- To foster and enhance the experience of practitioners, Early Career Investigators (ECIs), in providing access to a collaborative, innovative research network.
- To establish continuing interdisciplinary collaborations that continue after the length of this action.
The Action has already completed the several publications (cost.eu).
