PITCH

In the long term, the adoption of the PITCH model is expected to contribute to the improvement of the socioeconomic integration of foreign-born women in the involved countries:

• By offering personalised roadmaps to integration combining upskilling, awareness-raising and social engagement activities tailored to each woman’s specific needs, and addressing different aspects of the integration process.
• Through social activities, where foreign-born women are offered a safe space to interact with the local community, thus strengthening their sense of belonging to the host society, and bringing a cascade effect on other women, who are not directly involved in the project.
• Through a multi-stakeholder approach that involves civil/research organisations and municipalities, through which PITCH aims to ease the sustainability of the local strategies and the mainstreaming of the PITCH Model among relevant policy makers, and local stakeholders involved in integration processes.
• Through the transnational peer-learning and exchange of practices between organisations and municipalities that facilitates the exchange of new ideas on how to tackle integration issues, inspiring future strategies in the involved countries and beyond.
