It was a wonderful opportunity for all of us to be empowered and to have the chance to be more aware of different aspects of this reality. Twenty five people from seven\u00a0 European countries \u00a0and different backgrounds \u00a0shared best practices and ideas on the topic of migration. Non formal\u00a0 education activities and all the informal time that we shared brought us surprises and insights about other people\u2019s cultures.
