On May 23rd, 2024, the EMMW (Emotional Management for Migrant Women) project held its last Transnational Project Meeting in Helsinki. As we approach the end of this impactful two-year journey, our partners gathered to discuss the project's key results and future steps. EMMW partners have a common goal: to help migrant women manage their emotions and adapt culturally. During the meeting, partners reviewed the developed resources, discussed strategies to share these results with interested parties, and addressed various managerial issues.   #EMMW #MigrantWomen #ErasmusPlus #KA220

As a female immigrant from the Middle East, navigating my journey to financial independence and self-employment has been far from easy. My entrepreneurial path wasn't just about growing a business; it was about constantly challenging ingrained perceptions and judgments. Despite the obstacles, I've drawn inspiration from the remarkable efforts of countless women in Norway who are committed to empowering one another. Their care, dedication, and support have played a pivotal role in shaping my journey. 📍During each community gathering I attended, I couldn't help but reflect on other immigrant women – those whose lives seem predetermined, from whom to spend a life with, to what to want, how to behave, and what to dedicate their lives to, and more – and pondered how they too could be included in this empowering community. ✨I want to see that every woman, regardless of her situation, feels empowered to pursue financial independence and self-employment. 🌱Together with the The Conduit , we extend an invitation to you to join us in realizing this vision starting with this event: https://lnkd.in/dq63fAdD Hope to see many of you.
