Virtual integration home – promoting inclusion and empowerment digitally (VINCE)
Project duration
Source of funding
Central Baltic Programme
Total funding
2 214 000 €
The main objective of the VINCE project is to develop and improve public integration services for migrants. And more specifically, to transfer the communicative, active, and participative nature of individual and group-based integration services into the virtual, digital world.
A joint virtual platform will be created, and different kinds of virtual integration services will be integrated into the platform.
The project will use service design as a method, which means that the migrants themselves will be involved in creating content for the platform. As a result of the project, migrants will have access to cross-border, high-quality integration services that are provided on the virtual platform by the partner organizations.
