Migrant Education and Human Rights Awareness


There are many challenges to be faced regarding immigrant issues in modern day Greece. Immigrant policies are either deficient or non-applicable, or even non-existent. One of the problems immigrants and their children face is access to quality education. Usually, immigrant students don't have the same opportunities to access quality education, participate and perform as well as their native peers. Moreover, immigrants who enter the labour market do not have sufficient awareness of their rights regarding wage rates, health care, proper documentation and other issues. As members of a civil society we need to address those issues for the promotion of social cohesion and justice.
