  1. Regional Law No. 12/2003 “Standards for equal opportunities for access to knowledge for everyone and for the entire lifespan through the reinforcement of education and professional training, including in integration between them.” The goal is to favour adaptability to the transformation of knowledge within a knowledge society, through the systems of education and professional training, work and informal education.

  5. Resolutions No. 2477/2007 and No. 620/2008: the purpose of the two acts is to address the issue of the migratory phenomenon in innovative and standardised terms and to technically define the triennial scheduling document that provides for the establishment of a work group made up of technical officials belonging to different regional services;

  7. Proposed law for the social inclusion and employment of fragile and vulnerable people (Regional Government Resolution No. 769 on 22 June 2015) to support persons with social or health difficulties and assist them in entering the workforce, and placing online the Municipality’s social services, the Local Health Authority’s health services and Employment Centres.

 

On a spectrum, you can distinguish between a) services intended to inform or orient; b) social and health services; and c) services connected with entry into the employment market.

Within the first group, the following are included:

– Information, mediation and orientation desks for foreigners (public and third-party) in Emilia- Romagna: foreign citizens resident in the region can count on a structured system of information desks managed (directly or through agreements) by the Municipalities. This is a widespread network (140 desks are currently active) from which Italian citizens, public bodies and enterprises also benefit. A list of the information desks can be found at the following link:

– Intercultural centres: public meeting places for local natives and immigrants intended to promote interaction and exchange of points of view and experiences, in an attempt to improve reciprocal awareness and favour the process of social inclusion. http://sociale.regione.emilia-romagna.it/immigrati-e-stranieri/temi/centri-interculturali-e-comunicazione

The second include:

– Social desks: citizen services have been reorganised in such a way so as to provide a single territorial access point for information and any necessary social services.

 

Within the third, we want to spotlight:

– the network of public employment services, often provided in tandem with specific social-cultural mediation services, with the goal of facilitating and optimising use of the services that employment centres offer immigrants;
