Svenska Kyrkan Örkelljunga församling fick ett beviljat projekt från Nordplus fonden. Ni kan se engelska beskrivning av projektet.  

Summary: 

Project "Create to Integrate" ( or Inte-GREAT!) aims to develop, elaborate and approbate innovative, inexpensive methods and training programmes for integration, using various crafts and arts as the basic tool. The idea is to elaborate and make easily accessible (printed photo leaflets and video clips) ,step by step instructions for various natural craft works, without using much verbal communication which usually creates problems at the initial stage of integration. Trainers by using those easy-to-understand tools can gradually start the integration process of various target groups (immigrants, disabled, deprivilliged) into mainstream groups when the first barriers have disappeared and communication has started.
