The goal of MIGRA is the awareness raising for the specific needs and problems of women migrants, by providing information on the legal conditions as well as by contributing to a change of attitude – based on the European values’ system (tolerance, solidarity, mutual understanding, etc.).
This project is supported by the Europe for Citizens Programme of the European Commission for the promotion of active European citizenship. The Federal Minister for Women and Civil Service in Austria is co-financing the project between 1.8.2009 and 30.7.2010.
Within the framework of seminars, workshops and an international conference we would like to reach a large number of multipliers. Experts give trainings for the counselling of women migrants and the counsellors will use their newly acquired know-how in their work with the clients. Eleven partners from Austria, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy and the Slovak Republic have created a strong network of actors from public institutions and NGOs.

The project is supported by the NGO Fund of the EEA/Norwegian Financial Mechanism.
The project aims to build out a care system for victims based on interdisciplinary co-operation in Hungary to support the fight against trafficking in women and prostitution. It intends to establish co-operation between the governmental authorities for a more appropriate legal policy.
