Mygrants solution
Mygrants is a web application that provides immigrant with support through a number of thematic quiz modules, giving them the basic information and insights on topics that are most needed when arriving in a new country like Italy.
Online since 1st of April 2017, Mygrants is used by over 13,000 immigrants located in and out of the reception centers of 9 Regions of Italy.
Mygrants Community continues to grow, and every month has new affiliations from all over Italy and beyond. New Trainees (Mygrants users) use services from Kios (Greece), Grand-Banssam (Côte d'Ivoire), Accra (Ghana) and Dakar (Senegal).
THEMES OF THE TRAINING PROCESS
Each user has his "Dashboard" profile in which he finds his personal Dashboard and Mygrants Quiz Modules. The user chooses in full autonomy what module to perform. Each single quiz module is made up of ten textual questions with multiple choice options.
All quiz modules of the training process focus on 3 macro-themes: right and asylum, big social challenges and entrepreneurship. The contents, including quiz modules, are available in three languages: English, French, and Italian. The questions available in the quiz are around 2500 and have been drafted by several authoritative subjects, including training institutes, universities, institutions and the Foundation for Financial and Saving Education (ABI).
Mygrants has been developed with a technology (web app) that allows its use on all available mobile devices, whether they are smartphones, tablets, Android and iOS PC.
THEMATIC QUIZ MODULES
The Trainee reads the question and chooses the answer he thinks to be the correct one. Whether the answer is correct or incorrect, an explanatory note will give the Trainee - before going to the next quiz - additional explanatory pills on the concept.
The main topics covered by Mygrants Quiz Modules:
Rights & Duties: Fundamental Rights, Treaties and Operation of the European Union, European Asylum System, International Protection System for Asylum and Refugees, Travel Documents and Transport Documents
Great social challenges: right to health, free access to drinking water, free access to food, free access to education, social heroes of the third millennium, Agenda 2030
Entrepreneurship: identifying opportunities, knowing how to evaluate ideas, economic and financial education (*), planning activities with foresight, having the resources you need, taking the initiative.
The purpose, thanks to this innovative prize system, is to ensure that migrants - in addition to achieve a full knowledge of the Italian territory cultural system, becoming a potential resource - can spend their leisure in a constructive and proactive manner, reinforcing the spirit of initiative and enterprise, even in adversity.
