The context
Mentoring for integration
A mentoring program can make a considerable contribution to mutual trust and understanding. By teaming up with citizens of Thurgau through mentoring partnerships, refugees are empowered to step out of their isolation and find their way around the canton. Locals can help refugees with getting to know their new environment, language, and culture but also about the rights and duties of our society.
The place in action
OUR OUTPUT
PROMOTING INTEGRATION
We initiated the Glocalmeets project to promote integration in the canton of Thurgau. Refugees and locals who wish to enter a mentoring relationship can register through our app. We then match and establish contact between both parties. Both partners will meet with one of our coordinators to kick-start their mentoring relationship.
Mentoring partners are free to shape their cooperation as they wish but can always speak to our coordinators for further support.
Everybody can be a mentor. Register today and make a valuable contribution to a well-functioning integration programme in the canton of Thurgau.
