Target populations:

The Paris team will work, and had begun to work, with migrant children, adolescents, adults and students whose parents come from out of France. We are working about migration, migrant’s languages, connections/links between mother tongue (s) and identity, social and personnel integration in a foreign country.

 

The specific articulation of the project in our context (main objectives, main activities and main expected results)

Notre projet s’inscrit dans une dimension inter-générationnelle et essaiera d’explorer comment se “bricolent” les constellations identitaires en contexte migratoire et multi/plurilingue, d’analyser quels sont les effets des transmissions ou des non transmissions culturelles, linguistiques, historiques au sein des familles dans des environnements sociaux et familiaux singuliers. Il s’intéresse aussi à la dimension du genre et tentera d’éclairer les obstacles que rencontrent certaines femmes issues de l’ancienne immigration à entrer en littératie.
