The number of people that can be successfully integrated
Based on my town's population, availability of accommodation and job opportunities, it would be possible to welcome approximately 500 refugees. -
The kind of entrepreneuship that can be developed
Food markets could provide products from their homeland or appropriate kind of products that follow their religious beliefs, like halal meat.Furthermore, volunteers can create new types of accommodation. To give an illustration of what I mean, they could transform old buildings into small apartments. In addition, employers could offer job opportunities to each person according to their skills. -
The way your school can help
Students, teachers and parents can gather food and other necessities. Moreover, they can organize events to welcome young people to the school. Last but not least, to make refugees feel even more welcome, students can offer help to their new classmates with their homework. In that way, they could bond and make friendships. -
The potential benefits for local community
Introduction of the refugees into the society provides the opportunity to locals to familiarize with new cultures and customs. Also, refugees can boost the local economy by being consumers to local shops, establish new businesses and provide new and in many cases specialized workforce.
