BRIDGE Main Challenge: A.5. Discrimination, racism and sociocultural polarisation, including hate speech
European VET systems struggle to include migrants, refugees and marginalised learners, who face discrimination, limited culturally-responsive teaching and unsupportive learning environments. Refugee and foreign-born learners show higher drop-out rates, while educators often lack training in intercultural competence and trauma-informed practice.
TRANSFORM builds VET educators' capacity through a 4-day Train-the-Trainer course grounded in transformative education, alongside a certified micro-credential course of 60 adaptive challenges for students to build critical thinking, social integration and professional skills.
TRANSFORM-Transformative Education for Social Inclusion and Integration strengthens inclusion and diversity in European Vocational Education and Training (VET), particularly for migrants, refugees and marginalised learners. Funded by the Erasmus+ Programme, it develops a 4-day Train-the-Trainer course and a 60-challenge certified micro-credential for students, grounded in transformative, trauma-informed and culturally responsive pedagogy, with all resources open-access and translated into partner languages.
The project TRANSFORM addresses the social issue of the exclusion and insufficient integration of people from diverse cultural and migration backgrounds within education and society, particularly through barriers to inclusive vocational education and training (VET).
Inclusive VET is essential for social cohesion and labour-market integration in an increasingly diverse Europe. Without adequately trained educators and inclusive environments, migrant and marginalised learners remain at risk of exclusion from education and employment.
TRANSFORM addresses A5 in VET by equipping educators with concrete tools—training, competency frameworks and micro-credentials—to build discrimination-free, culturally responsive classrooms across six European countries.
TRANSFORM co-creates resources through participatory workshops, then pilots a 4-day Train-the-Trainer course covering transformative, trauma-informed pedagogy, alongside a certified micro-credential course of 60 adaptive challenges addressing integration barriers faced by migrant and diverse VET students. Feedback from pilots feeds continuous refinement and open dissemination as OERs.
