This is the origin of the Al-Jisr project, which was set up thanks to funding from the KAICIID International Fellowship Programme and the incorporation into the team of Yoan Molinero Gerbeau, a researcher belonging to the IMMERSE group from which he has carried out different analyses on the reality of unaccompanied minors in Spain. The proposal presented to KAICIID in June 2021 consisted of an analytical study of unaccompanied minors as well as the implementation of intercultural and interreligious dialogue workshops between local youth and unaccompanied minors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The centre chosen for the fieldwork and as the place where the project sessions would take place was the institution Sant Joan de D\u00e9u de Lleida. In addition to the facilities provided for the development of the research, this institution can be pointed out as a model of best practices<\/em> due to the reception and support provided to the unaccompanied minors under its guardianship. Sant Joan de D\u00e9u-Lleida is structured around different devices, depending on the migrant's own process: \u2018Emergency\u2019 (for new arrivals), \u2018First reception\u2019 (minors living in the centre itself) and a whole series of flats and projects in which the young migrants are housed in flats in the city but are still under the tutelage \u2013 in one way or another \u2013 of the institution (particularly the flats in Corts Catalanas and the Sostre 360 project).The analytical part consisted of 12 interviews with migrant children and youth, distributed as follows: three in emergency, three in first reception and five between the Corts Catalanas flat and Sostre 360. Most of the interviewees ranged in age from 16 to 20 years old. In these interviews, we tried to go deeper into their contexts of origin and their formative processes, the different cultural and cognitive conflicts they potentially experienced during the migration process and, finally, their perception of their degree of integration into Spanish society. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, seven agents of the institution were interviewed (the head of the SAER \u2013 spiritual and religious assistance service \u2013 a brother from the community that owns the centre \u2013 the Order of the Hospitaller Brothers of St. John of God \u2013 social workers and psychologists). In the case of the interview with the centre's staff, the aim was to delve into the work carried out with the young people as well as the treatment offered to them for their cultural, idiosyncratic and religious characteristics. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Two discussion groups were also held in which the analytical part was combined with the experience of an intercultural and interreligious dialogue. In this sense, two groups were organised: one with four young people (two local and two migrant) in a school that they attended, and another with seven young people (three local and four migrant). The first aim of the sessions was to enable the participants to make explicit the cultural differences between them as well as the conflicts that sometimes arise from these differences. Secondly, we proposed that the participants explore ways in which they could overcome these conflicting views of reality and move towards collaborative and dialogical models, both among themselves and in society as a whole. At the end of the groups, a \u2018festive\u2019 moment was proposed for the members by means of a shared lunch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We also participated in a spirituality workshop organised by the institution with the \u2018Emergencies\u2019 group. The aim of the workshop was so that the members could make explicit those questions that were common to all of them beyond the cultural differences of their cultural contexts. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" El primer proyecto surge de una propuesta presentada en junio de 2021 al KAICIID, en el marco del KAICIID International Fellowship Programme, sobre la realizaci\u00f3n de un estudio anal\u00edtico con menores no acompa\u00f1ados, as\u00ed como el desarrollo de talleres de di\u00e1logo intercultural e interreligioso entre j\u00f3venes locales y j\u00f3venes migrantes que han sido o son […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":640,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"off","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-28","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
