ISPAW is a Grundtvig Learning Partnerhsip whose aim is to transfer competences as well as to exchange professional methods helping social structures to welcome and to accompany homeless persons. The targets are associations or institutions which accommodate and coach youth suffering from family breakdown, on the way to marginalization and without a real home. The partnership gathers partners from France, Italy, Latvia, Romania and Poland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We began the project by a first meeting in Tukums, Latvia. We have started the research and realize the disparities in terms of social policies, targets, concepts in the countries participating to the project. We focused on some terms to be better defined and understood by all partners, like Social inclusion, homeless, street persons, to be on the street, networks. A workshop was held in Tukums allowing the participants to exchange and to better understand each other. It is obvious that the target is not exactly the same in all EU countries. Nevertheless, there are obvious common points: for instance the age, they are youngsters (from 13 to 30), they are living on the street, sometimes in shelters or in squats \/slums (with families); they are also outsiders of the society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have decided to deepen our understanding of the main concepts and to collect the best practices from each country. In Tukums, all partners presented their activities, the social context of the countries and tried to integrate the recent development of the financial crisis in their reflection. The next step was this May (5 and 6). We had our second meeting in Rzeszow, Poland. We have processed the joint analysis of the results of the comparative study and good practice through the PEST and SWOT tools, visited a social support structure, interacting with local social workers and presented and discussed various dissemination tools, to prepare future projects. CESIE, during this second meeting, has given the possibility to participate to 2 local social workers with homeless and immigrants, coming from Centro Astalli, and will continue to do so during the next meetings to come, first of all in Romania (Calarasi) the next October.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
