\"\"<\/p>\n

AICCON is a partner in the European project IT-Bridge: Empowering Migrant Youth for Employment<\/strong>, an innovative initiative involving Italy and Spain that aims to improve the employability of young people with a migrant background through technical training in the IT sector and personalized support.<\/p>\n

A Project to Bridge the Skills Gap<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Young people with a migrant background are a particularly vulnerable group in the labor market: they are overrepresented among NEETs (Not in Education, Employment, or Training<\/em>), more likely to drop out of school early, and often employed in the informal labor market. Although the IT sector offers many opportunities, these young people face significant barriers such as language difficulties, limited knowledge of the local work environment, and a lack of social networks.<\/p>\n

IT-Bridge addresses these challenges with a social innovation approach, combining technical training with empowerment interventions and holistic support. The goal is to equip participants with the skills and resources necessary to access educational and professional pathways in the digital sector.<\/p>\n

Project Objectives<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Through a multi-stakeholder intervention model, IT-Bridge aims to:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Promote the skills development of young people with a migrant background (particularly NEETs) through the implementation of a customized program tailored to the needs of this group in the IT sector, while simultaneously providing support to help them navigate the labor market independently.<\/li>\n
  2. Increase the employability of young people by helping them bridge skill gaps and overcome socio-communicative barriers that may hinder access to education and\/or employment.<\/li>\n
  3. Develop an innovative approach that can also be applied to other training programs, other vulnerable groups (such as long-term unemployed individuals or people with disabilities), or in other countries.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
