Objective The extents to which different groups of young adult migrants are socially included or excluded, and the factors that facilitate inclusion or help cause exclusion is a vital issue for young adult immigrants, the nations they have joined, and the European Union whose policies have facilitated large volumes and rapid rates of change in migrant flows. Our central concept is that there are a range of factors that inhibit, or encourage, the abilities of individuals and groups to make the transition from excluded to included within societies. The principal aim of EUMARGINS is to identify and prioritise those factors that matter most (for specific young adult migrant groups and in different countries as well as for all young adult migrant groups and across Europe) and to lay a foundation for recommendations that can assist the transitions from exclusion to inclusion, particularly focusing on dominant factors of unemployment/jobs and the related education aspects. Given these premises the project will focus upon: Young individuals with immigrant origin in seven local urban-metropolitan areas in seven different European countries. In every research setting most and less marginalised immigrant groups will be investigated in order to provide a comparative framework also at the local level. Major social domain will be education and labour market. These are the most important arenas in which young adults have to establish themselves as active social actors in society. Other relevant areas of young adults’ interest such as leisure and socio-political activism will also be considered. The study focuses upon the experiences of social inclusion/exclusion among young adults with immigrant background living in Oslo, Gothenburg, London, Genoa, Metz, Barcelona and Tallinn. EUMARGINS will be based on a combination of biographical and ethnographical data-collection in the above mentioned cities, and in addition, analysis of available statistical data on relevant Fields of science social scienceseconomics and businessbusiness and managementemploymentsocial sciencessociologysocial issuesunemploymentsocial sciencessociologydemographyhuman migrations Keywords cultural capital immigrants integration participation social exclusion young people Programme(s) FP7-SSH - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Socio-economic Sciences and Humanities Topic(s) SSH-2007-3.1-03 - Migration SSH-2007-3.2-01 - Youth and social exclusion Call for proposal FP7-SSH-2007-1 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP-FP - Small or medium-scale focused research project Coordinator UNIVERSITETET I OSLO EU contribution € 395 666,00 Address PROBLEMVEIEN 5-7 0313 Oslo Norway See on map Region Norge Oslo og Viken Oslo Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Max Johannes Demuth (Mr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Participants (6) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all GOETEBORGS UNIVERSITET Sweden EU contribution € 196 842,00 Address VASAPARKEN 405 30 Goeteborg See on map Region Södra Sverige Västsverige Västra Götalands län Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Margareta Ahlqwist (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data GOLDSMITHS' COLLEGE United Kingdom EU contribution € 188 830,00 Address LEWISHAM WAY SE14 6NW London See on map Region London Inner London — East Lewisham and Southwark Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Jane Offerman (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data UNIVERSITA DEGLI STUDI DI GENOVA Italy EU contribution € 174 884,00 Address VIA BALBI 5 16126 Genova See on map Region Nord-Ovest Liguria Genova Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Patrizia Cerretesi (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Grup Igia Spain EU contribution € 155 332,00 Address C/ Enric Granados 116 1° 2 a 08008 Barcelona See on map Activity type Public bodies (excluding Research Organisations and Secondary or Higher Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Oriol Romaní Alfonso (Prof.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Institute of Baltic Studies Estonia EU contribution € 145 086,00 Address Lai 30 51005 Tartu See on map Region Eesti Eesti Lõuna-Eesti Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Kristina Kallas (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data Association Recherches, Observations, Formations, Enseignements France EU contribution € 162 092,00 Address rue de la Sajotte 10 88170 Aroffe See on map Activity type Research Organisations Administrative Contact Marie Lambert (Ms.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window Total cost No data
