To identify best practices on a national level and to share them transnationally

The aim of the Empowering Migrants for Employment -project (EME) is to identify best practices on a national level enhancing the employment of migrants and supporting the recognition and valorisation of their talents and to share them between project partners on the transnational level. In order to identify the best practices, the national practices will be evaluated in the EME project.
