Working for a Better World is implemented within the framework of ERASMUS + and is a Strategic Partnership program in the field of Adult Education. The program is coordinated by a partnership of four organisations, which come from Ireland, Greece, Spain and Italy.

The W4BW program proposes to develop practices to strengthen the resilience of professionals and volunteers working with refugees/asylum seekers/immigrants and to encourage the adoption of a work culture that addresses the psychosocial needs of those working in the field. The program will encourage peer learning approaches and develop educational materials that will address the needs of people working in the field.

-The needs around the psychosocial support of professionals/volunteers.
-The educational needs of the Organizations and Bodies active in the reception and/or integration of refugees/asylum seekers/immigrants with the aim of more effectively supporting the target population.
