Updated Catalogue of Free Digital Resources for Migrants

The Directorate General Joint Research Centre (DG JRC) of the European Commission commissioned the “Study on MOOCs and free digital learning for inclusion of migrants and refugees.” In this study a catalogue of free digital learning initiatives targeted to develop the skills needed by migrants and refugees in EU countries was produced. A follow up study was recently launched with the aim of updating the catalogue and make it more comprehensive. This new phase of the study was commissioned to a team of researchers led by Dr. Charalambos Vrasidas and the international research center CARDET.

The online catalog will be updated periodically as new initiatives become available. We are in the process of collecting initiatives and resources that relate to the subject of the study. Results from the study will support the Directorate General of Education and Culture of the European Commission with evidence for the development of relevant policies in the field of open and inclusive education.

If you participated or if you are aware of any initiative that uses Free Digital Learning, (e.g. MOOCs, online courses, online handbooks, mobile apps, games, or other digital resources) to help refugees and migrants develop their skills and support their integration, please contact us.

The final report of the first study and the current catalogue of initiatives can be accessed here.
