OFI | Open for immigration: empowerment of vulnerable immigrant population groups in Lithuania

Implemented

K1-O4-IP-V-041

“Active Citizens Fund” program supported by the
EEA Financial Mechanism

Oct 20, 2020 – Apr 19, 2022

Description

The main goal of the project is to strengthen the socioeconomic inclusion of vulnerable groups by creating sustainable matching process (between newcomers and employers) and labour market inclusion solutions. To guarantee that the newcomers contribute to prosperous societies, project partners seek to a) develop an IT tool that would match job seeking immigrants with employers, b) hold tailor-made trainings for public sector officials and business companies about diverse and inclusive labour market, c) hold consultations for immigrant groups about their rights and opportunities to integrate into labour market.
