The mapping of the target groups will take us on a journey through the cooperation with youth centers. The different experiences coming from different areas of the world (Eur de aquí tu texto de cabecera ope, America) and even within Europe (South, East and North of Europe) will provide invaluable opportunities for an innovative and rich methodology on how to approach SafeSpaces’ target group through different successful actions.
The result will consist in the creation of list of job profiles in the sector targeted and a job role description template. We will focus on professionals working as social workers in Reception and Integration Centre across the implementing countries. Part of this deliverable will be the mapping of existing job profiles in the very specific field of non-accompanied migrant minors and the proposition of SafeSpaces project for a new professional that can work efficiently under these circumstances.

Training Curricular Methodology
One training curriculum will be developed for Youth Centre Professionals, structured around three core Learning Pillars:
1) Empowerment and Inclusion.
2) Education and Labour Market Integration.
3) Participation and Community Engagement.
These pillars reflect and incorporate the 12 topics proposed in the project application. The training curriculum will be designed based on the Occupational Profiles developed under WP2 and will address a wide range of topics aligned with the different areas of specialization of social workers in migrant centers, such as legal support, psychological support, and career support.
The curriculum will cover transversal skills (e.g., critical thinking), foundational knowledge about integration and available social services, and will then delve into specialized topics such as legal counselling, prevention of human trafficking, criminality and radicalization, civic engagement, education counselling (e.g., introduction to Vocational Training opportunities), and psychological and social support (e.g., family reunification). The curriculum will be available in English, Greek, Spanish, and Bulgarian.
Training program
Within Work Package 3, the Safe Spaces project has developed a 12-module online training programme using previously developed curriculum for professionals working with unaccompanied refugee minors, young refugees, and youth on the move. The course targets professionals working with the target group.
The training is based on the occupational profiles and needs identified during the research phase WP2 and provides practical, experience-based knowledge to support professionals in their daily work. It combines transversal skills (such as critical thinking and intercultural communication) with specialised competences in legal support, psychosocial care, education and career guidance, health, civic engagement, and integrated case management.
The programme consists of 12 thematic modules, including information and orientation, individual development planning, prevention of trafficking and radicalisation, health, education and labour market support, entrepreneurship, sports, family reunification, access to legal services, and integrated case management. The modules are organised under three learning pillars: Empowerment and Inclusion, Education and Labour Market Integration, and Participation and Community Engagement.
The training is delivered entirely as an online, self-paced course, using interactive learning materials, case studies, and assessments. It is available in English, Greek, Spanish, and Bulgarian, ensuring accessibility and local implementation across partner countries and worldwide.
