Counter Stereotypes and Hateful Narratives

Proposal: Counter stereotypes and hateful narratives in relation to migration, particularly with regard to migrant women

Implementation: 2024 to 2026

Call: CERV-2023-CITIZENS-CIV – Citizens’ engagement and participation – 2023

Topic: CERV-2023-CITIZENS-CIV

Type of Action: CERV-LS – CERV Lump Sum Grants

Proposed Budget: 951 570,00€

Keywords: Engaging citizens and communities, Promoting democratic participation through debating the future of Europe, promote citizens engagement, climate change, migration, behaviour, democracy citizens, social inclusion

Objective: Climate change and wars are the first factors that push more and more people to move from their birthplace to other places but, while wars push refugees into areas where, after the war could theoretically return, climate change has a definitive impact on the territory of origin and therefore generate a migration almost always definitive with consequent demographic pressure on some areas of the planet and depopulation on others. 

The project aims to counter stereotypes and hateful narratives in relation to migration, particularly with regard to migrant women who are the weakest target and least present in the democratic debate. The project aims to raise awareness of young European citizens in the countries on the theme of migration and develop critical skills towards fake news and media hatred and on the other hand to increase the confidence of women migrants to EU institutions by increasing their participation in the democratic life of the host countries.
