IMMIGRANT INTEGRATION TO RURAL AREAS
19-20 SEPTEMBER 2017 IN VARBERG, SWEDEN
THANK YOU, for participating in our second network meeting in Varberg, Sweden. Your participation made it an enjoyable, learning and not at least, very inspiring conference.
Now an intense period of wrapping up and preparing for our next network meeting starts for the members in the steering group of IIRA. We will analyze the material and documentations to find the most productive topics to continue working with during our next network meeting in Germany! We will also analyze your answers from the evaluation that you will receive in next week so we´ll be sure to have all of your inputs while planning.
In this folder you will find all documentation from our two days together and contacts to all participants and speakers so that you can keep and get in touch with each other. You will also find the presentations from our keynote speakers from day one.
Don´t forget to visit our facebookpage: Immigrant Integration to Rural Areas, and welcome to apply for membership in the FB-group with the same name.
See you all soon!
