3. The key word of CELINE: Rights, Training, and Migrant Women Work

4. CELINE starts experimentations which can bring positive answers to:- Scarcity of visibility of migrant women’s problems related to the labour market;- Structural myopia in reading social and cultural phenomena where the migrant women are nearly a mere appendix of men; - A strong discrimination in the female labour market, in addiction to racial discrimination of migrant people in the labour market. - Lack of social structures and services able to grant facilitation of integration process, within the social tissue and context of migrant women and their families.

5. CELINE’s strategy develops through several SYSTEMACTIONS which complement each others and develop according to a transversal logic. In fact, the general aim is carry out and experiment real gender policies useful to the job inclusion and to the empowerment of female competences.

6. We can sum up the system actions as follows: -Territorial Analysis about the social and economic needs of our target group; -Experimentation of consultancies services for the target groups (women migrant), like Vocational guidance, activity of enterprise creation and competences balance;-Activity of Training; -Experimentation and Improvement of the context;* Opening of the Multi-ethnic Centre* Starting up of the Observatory * Starting up of the centre -Communication, Mainstreaming, Project Planning -Transnational activity
