Rationale

Text available in

The issue to be faced here is constituted by old and new criticalities, which hinder labour and social integration of immigrants, being aware that these two dimensions proceed at the same rate and that the labour integration is inseparable from social integration. To this end, the problems that were individualised in the candidacy form for admission to action 1 are reconfirmed.
The statistical dimension of the problem, also based on new data which have been made available over the last few months, confirms the consistent growth of the migratory phenomenon and its impact on the territory and local system, both as regards stock as well as flows.
The immigrant community in the Province of Udine varies according to the statistical indicators taken into consideration. If we look at the entry permits as of 31.12.2000, the number of foreign citizens were 14,842 with a percentage variation of 19.2 compared to the previous year. Women account for 46.2% of the total and show how the issue of gender and family problems that the project takes deeply into account, in virtue of the ever-frequent family reconciliation, now have a considerable importance. The immigrant citizens resident in the Province of Udine as of 31.12.2000 are 11,463 units with an increase of 20.2% compared to the previous year. It is also interesting to note the data regarding subscription to the National Health System, which in 2000 was 11,300 in the Province with an increase of 24.7%: this is considered a good indicator of the social insertion of immigrants and at the same time a recorder of the integration demand that comes from this component. Over a third of the immigrant population resident in Friuli Venezia Giulia lives and works in the territory of the Province of Udine, followed by Triest, Gorizia and finally Pordenone. This is a record for the Province of Udine, which is intended to increase as a consequence of the opportunities offered on the Provincial territory. A great majority of the immigrant population in the Province originates from Central Eastern Europe (more than half of the total), followed in order of consistency by the European Union Countries, Central-Southern Africa, North Africa and the Middle East, those of Central-Southern America and, finally by Central-Eastern Asia. The immigrant population has grown from 6,274 residents recorded in 1995 to 11,463 in 1999 with an increase of over 50% or an annual increase slightly over 10%. This is an important increase to compensate for the loss in the population of the local community and contributes to reducing ageing (see the statistical yearbooks on immigration drawn up by IRES). Even the percentage incidence of resident immigrants on the total population of the Province is on the increase, since it has increased between 1999 and 2000 from 1.8% to 2.2%. On the increase, even if to a more limited extent, is the incidence of minors, that has increased from 17.9 to 18.3 % out of the total of immigrants: the presence of this components and its growth is an important factor as it introduced new problems on the integration front, which cannot be ignored and which the project takes into deep consideration with some of the interventions included.

As far as the criticality is concerned, or the discriminations that the immigrant community faces during its integration, those highlighted some time ago, which involve the whole immigration path, can be reconfirmed, from departure to arrival, primary detention, family reconciliation, stability in the hosting community, and eventual return to the country of origin for those who wish to do so.

From the department, the associated criticalities are reconfirmed: lack of a contact and relation network in the hosting community, linguistic and professional skills, or very limited skills and, mainly, lack of programming of the entry flows, to which the delays in obtaining permits and entry visas is added.

Upon arrival in the hosting community, the criticalities relating to the following arise: the sense of disorientation following the impact with the new society, the lack of linguistic knowledge, the inadequacy of the immigrant working, company and professional culture, the lack of detention centres, even for limited periods of accommodation, the insufficient availability of housing at reasonable prices, the excess bureaucracy, also caused by the plurality of the public and private bodies operating in the immigration field and, finally, the lack of information and linguistic, cultural and community mediators required to intermediate in an equal manner compared to the local context.

From the very first moment of settlement, the major criticalities that are also confirmed in this phase relate to the difficulties of professional development and the need to increase the income and are mainly linked to the risk of professional segregation, more so for the female component. Professional segregation highlights the lack of preconditions upstream, which are necessary to prevent the professional course from stopping and consequently that relating to income. Reference is made to poor knowledge of the Italian language, both spoken and written, which, in fact, limits the professional and income development. In substance, the consciousness of the basic conditions, indispensable for putting ascending mobility courses into act and the necessity of forecasting the associated individual and collective behaviour in time is still very poor (both in the hosting community as well as the immigrant community). Professional mobility presents greater difficulties relating to the possibility and opportunity to develop positive entrepreneurial paths due to the administrative restrictions and complexity, the strong competition recorded in the various markets and the need for investments and credit required to start up the activity.

When, following family reconciliation, the problem passes from the individual to the family, the criticalities already highlighted are fully reconfirmed, namely:
- those relating to housing problems with the risk of transforming the few areas available into ghettos with negative repercussions on the value of the areas, the neighbour relations and culture of the owners who are not prepared to rent out to the immigrant population;
- the difficulties of obtaining credit for those families who decide to definitely settle down in the Provincial territory and propose to buy a home. In fact, the current forms of credit are based on the income of the hosting community and, as a consequence, are too high to be borne by an immigrant family;
- the lack of services offered to the family, which is almost always considered an obstacle for the labour integration of both partners, mainly the services relating to child care: crèches in the company, condominium or residential area.;
- still today, the quality of education is mostly based on the targets of the hosting community with negative repercussions on early school leaving age, which becomes an obstacle for future labour and social integration;
- the difficulties of pursuing the right balance between work time and free time, with a relative possibility of finding part-time employment;
- the availability of public transport: many immigrants live in the main cities and work in the surrounding towns, the most evident example of this is the Chair District;
- the risk of the younger members of the family loosing their identity and a real explosion in marriage crisis with particular reference to the role and identity of the female members.

The criticalities relating to the settlement and definite integration process propose the theme of a full social political participation in the new community intended as a new member who enters the community to all effects, in particular as regards work with reference to the trade union life, and the management of services offered to citizens (transportation, canteens, etc.)
A further element is represented by the criticalities relating to returning to one`s origins, which are particularly significant if it involves the second generation that has grown up in the new country, but also those who belong to the first generation and who intend to return after a rather long period abroad.

A latest criticality factor that has recently been added relates to the variations in the national legislation in matters concerning immigration and, in general, orientation at a European level: in fact, elements of worry and insecurity have arisen also throughout the immigrant population that has been living on the territory for some time and wishes to complete the course of its social insertion. These changes, paradoxically strengthen the objectives of a project fully centralised on labour and social integration of immigrants.

Objective

Text available in

The general targets that were outlined in the Candidacy form for admission to Action 1 and which are now confirmed again, are:
- to organise organic relationships between the community of departure and the community of arrival in order to anticipate linguistic, professional, community training, to facilitate and accelerate the bureaucratic and administrative procedures and to create virtuous networks between companies, training structures, public offices and associations of the two areas involved in the immigration path;
- to overcome, during insertion in the hosting community, the sense of disorientation, which hits almost all immigrants, also as a consequence of the poor and inadequate familiarity with the new social and productive reality, but also the necessity to overcome the problems of temporary or definitive residence and the insufficient knowledge of the language and regulations at work and the services of the new society, or the lack of trustworthy linguistic mediators and finally to reduce the excess bureaucracy;
- to eliminate the segregation phenomena, during the stabilisation phase, as well as the poor vertical mobility, also due to the difficulties of the professional skills and qualifications being recognised, or the lack of a compulsory course of adult education and training in our country;
- to facilitate, when the family has been reconciled, housing issues, either in rented accommodation or owned property, to contribute in looking after the children in order to allow both parents to work, to provide for the qualification of the education system to reduce early school leaving ages, to combat the loss of identity, particularly in couples and women;
- to apply the full acknowledgement of rights, including political rights and to acknowledge social assistance contributions, from the time of definite settling or return to the country of origin.

On the basis of these general themes, the main objective of the project is again confirmed, and that is to eliminate the criticalities - both consolidated and emerging - which hinder an effective labour and social integration of foreign immigrants in the Province of Udine and which, parallelly, compromise an integrated development of the provincial social community.
The main objective revolves around the following sub-objectives:

1. To promote the planning and propositive capacity of the public operator and various subjects who operate in matters relating to immigration in order to monitor the quantity and quality phenomena, to develop a planning action of the flows necessary for the labour market to function well, to simplify the bureaucratic and administrative processes in order to accelerate the course of labour and social insertion;

2. To programme and implement interventions in the flows of the community of origin by experimenting with partnerships, within the more general development partnership, between migration communities and institutions and hosting communities and institutions to bring actions forward as regards training and flow planning;

3. To adapt the labour and company culture with the aim of transforming today`s immigrant into a worker who integrates to all effects in the company, trade union, professional and contractual community. This is an important leap for all different subjects who operate in the labour area (trade unions, entrepreneurs, workers, etc.);

4. To create the conditions for an increasing professional mobility by experimenting forms of qualification certification, individualising new professional areas and developing the theme of recognising qualifications obtained abroad;

5. To facilitate housing through experimental measures to create and start-up company guest quarters, backed by bodies and structures who operate in the property field or who handle revolving funds useful in facilitating the purchase (by immigrant families), rent or ownership, of the property;

6. To support the immigrant family and the employment of both partners by experimenting crèches in companies, residential areas and groups of families;

7. To adapt the culture of citizenship for immigrants and residents by developing courses in: adult training (language, culture, standards, regulations), training of operators in public services and private organisations as far as immigration is concerned (labour market, school, training, health, assistance, etc..);

8. To promote an information programme for the immigrant and hosting communities base on the experiences of other European countries, on sound integration procedures, criticalities and opportunities that the phenomenon periodically manifests;

9. To strengthen the mediation capability between the hosting community and the migrating community in order to overcome the critical points that arise daily both in the labour as well as the social network, also by experimenting new cultural mediation actions in the labour and service fields;

10. To promote the implementation of new figures who operate in the cultural integration and social fields, overcoming the different approaches to the immigration theme and backing up forms of collaboration among the subjects and finally setting up new instruments such as the mediation agency and the multi-cultural centre;

11. To develop mutual knowledge and propositive and project-relating collaboration among public operators, institutional bodies operating in the immigration field and associations operating in the training, information and labour field and immigrant associations which are increasing in number throughout the territory;

From the general strategy side, this is also confirmed again with respect to what has been outlined for admission to Action 1. The proposal gathers the requests of DOCUP referred to innovation, development partnership, transnationality, mainstreaming, active participation. The resolution of the discrimination phenomena of the immigrant population in labour and society hits the target of the stable integration theme between labour and social politics, the theme of a non-discriminating information society and the theme of the right balance between social and labour development.

As regards the strategy for establishing the development partnership, the project proposal includes research, promoted by the Province of Udine and carried out by IRES, with the aim of involving all the subjects who operate on the Provincial territory in matters of immigration in order to implement a common project.
The work carried out during the course of Action 1 has made it possible to consolidate the good results achieved during the previous phase, maintaining the wealth and variety of the subjects that are part of the development partnership, also as a consequence of a profound unitary approach of all those participating in the project initiative.

An important element of the project strategy that is worthy of note relates to the need to give value to the objectives and project interventions in order to extend their effects on the society and local context. To remove the integration criticality means acting both on the hosting as well as the immigration community sides with the scope of transforming today`s immigrant in a worker and citizen with the same rights and duties as the citizen of the hosting society. In fact, both communities can `brood` on a spirit of separation or ghettoisation, which in time, could hinder the integration path.. An integrated community represents an important milestone because it overcomes the separation culture and offers everyone important social and cultural mobility opportunities. It is thought of intervening as far as the immigrant community is concerned, keeping well in mind the effects on society and the local context also with a view to preventing restrictions towards the project initiative, with particular reference to the following aspects:
1. to support the stabilisation path of the provincial population, who for a number of decades has shown a relentless decline with a continuous loss and ageing of the population. This negative phenomenon is tending to grow weaker also thanks to the contribution by the immigrant population;
2. to balance the population decline from a territorial point of view, overcoming the extensive unbalances that still persist and negatively penalise some provincial territories, especially the mountain area;
3. to achieve a better and longer lasting equilibrium between labour demand and supply with a view to protecting the regional production structure from serious risk due to lack of labour (see traditional sectors);
4. to increase the number of users and customers of the services offered to the population, which is more and more oversized as regards the municipal, provincial as well as the regional dimensions;
5. to extend the integration and sectorial and territorial stabilisation paths of the population over the provincial territory;
6. to increase social, commercial and production relations between the province of Udine and the immigration areas.

The project will pay particular attention to information on the themes, subjects of the intervention and the spreading of the initiatives put into action, considered as being strategic given the effective cultural transformation and thereby the structural transformation of the territory in relation to the immigrants. The project shall bear its own logo, which will identify the various initiatives that have been put into action and the various subjects involved.

The innovative elements of the project described for admission to Action 1 are reconfirmed in this phase. The innovative aspects of the project are as follows:
- building stable relations between social and working politics as it intervenes with a pragmatic approach in the experimentation of working conditions and equal trade union rights among the workers and proposes experimenting new forms of social integration;
- the information society, as there is an intention of experimenting an information campaign to foster cultural logics of integration and to introduce new instruments such as expert systems, distance training and workgroups;
- social development and employment in that the structural conditions are created to encourage production sectors and companies to stay in the territory, otherwise they risk being transferred to other countries, due to the lack of labour or the type of processing.

An innovation factor relates to the involvement of beneficiaries throughout the cycle of the interventions foreseen: this process works around the succession of actions relating to research, planning, implementation of the intervention, evaluation and disclosing the results. The fact that the task of evaluating the interventions is given to the stakeholders` board, within which the representatives of the ethnic associations have a central role, is undoubtedly fundamental.

The innovative elements relating to the development of: methods, approaches and instruments; the targets of the actions taken; of the context understood as the development of systems connected to the labour market, are confirmed once again.

As far as the first point is concerned, the importance of the following is emphasised:
- the requalification of the service sector - public and private - of the support given to immigration and their operators and the creation of new supporting instruments such as FAD, expert system, CD ROM;
- programmed management of the immigration flows relating to the introduction of a method of detecting the need with the regional and national job centres ;
- creation of new professional figures in the mediation field and institution of the register of mediators;
- simplification of the administrative procedures for the immigrated population.

As regards the second point, the importance of targets such as those outlined herewith are highlighted:
- the development of vertical mobility and new professional figures and acknowledgement of foreign qualifications as an area for qualified employment;
- the creation of specialised mediation figures.

On the third point, the following is highlighted:
- improvement of the working conditions through the development of territorial and company negotiations with the involvement of trade union and employers` organisations;
- the development partnership intended as: a form of group construction, a method of collective working, a strategic resource for the development of the integration process

The beneficiaries participated in the initiative from the very beginning with the involvement of all the ethnic associations in the Province, that are part of UCAI, by setting up the idea of the project and the development partnership, or by fully participating in all the intervention research work implemented before filling-in the candidacy form.
This involvement will continue with UCAI`s participation in the direct management of the `participation and common structures` work for planning a multiethnic centre, which will be the headquarters of the ethnic associations.
Likewise for the other projects, even though they may be handled by other subjects, an important moment will always be the direct contact with the immigrant population, guided or mediated by the ethnic associations, in order to gather a series of elements that allow planning and implementing the services that are targeted and calibrated as close as possible to the real needs of the final beneficiary. For example, as regards the action called `family support` and the intervention relating to experimentation of crèches in the company, condominium and residential area, the first phase will inevitably involve immigrant women as much as possible, and more generally families, those to whom the interventions are targeted, in order to exactly assess their specific needs.

Furthermore, the involvement of the beneficiaries is materialised with the participation at the ATI Assembly and the UCAI and ethnic associations stakeholders` board meeting, the UCAI board of directors` meeting, or the three institutional bodies set up by the development partnership for the definite implementation of the project.
The task of evaluating the project, with a specific section gathering the opinion of the beneficiary subject is given to the stakeholders` board.
The aim of the project is to gather the opinion of immigrant citizens with the help of the ethnic associations and others operating in the immigration field, through the `information and awareness` actions, or the organisation of telematic workshops, some of which refer to the introduction of the actions and project measures in order to achieve a path of validation, or to gather suggestions, which are useful for improving the project initiative.
The envisaged information campaigns also play an important role in informing and involving the immigrant beneficiaries and partly the local community for presenting the project, but also to spread the experiences of sound procedures.

 

 Between national partners

Text available in

The partners of the PS (Development Partnership) have been involved in the project through a work of research-intervention promoted by the Province and implemented, which has anticipated a part of the initiatives that the Equal project has assigned to Action 1, facilitating the set up of the project and development partnership. The partners have ratified the will already expressed in the previous phase by supporting temporary business. The document highlights the common regulations necessary for managing the project up to its conclusion. The project management structure envisages:
1. the A.T.I. Assembly, consisting of a representative for each associate organisation with the task of periodically evaluating the development of the project activities with particular reference to the level of satisfaction of the beneficiaries, the transnational relations and relations with the subjects;
2. the Stakeholders` Board, consisting of the representatives of the trade associations and ethnic associations participating in the temporary business association with the task of evaluating the project, particularly as regards the impact of the actions and interventions on the final beneficiaries;
3. the A.T.I. board of directors, consisting of the representatives of the leading organisations, individualised for the co-ordination and management of the actions provided for in the project, with the task of intervening in order to comply with and improve the project implementation timetable, to investigate the positive and negative impacts of the various actions;
4. the A.T.I. Central Co-ordination Office, consisting of the project leader, project manager and consultant who will be individualised by the Provincial Administration of Udine for carrying out and generally co-ordinating the project;
The PS, as it has taken form up to now appears to be self-sufficient, however, notwithstanding this, the possibility of expanding the participation in the Stakeholders` board by underwriting protocols of understanding with other ethnic associations is assumed. A wide participation is desired, it being understood that PS remains solely responsible for the results and good use of the resources. The 11 actions will have a manager and those who will put the actions into practice with the purpose of expanding the participation and involvement level of all those participating in the PS. The involvement of the partners envisages that regulations will be drawn up for the operation of all the organisations foreseen by the partnership and that communication regulations will be defined so as to guarantee clarity. The partners` co-operation shall make use of computerised instruments for flexible management such as workgroup management in order to plan the project`s macro phases, to define the various work groups, to distribute and file documents and to monitor the various project variables.

Agreement Summary

Text available in

The organisational methods have been adopted in order to manage a complex Development Partnership (DP), which involve different partners working locally in the field of immigration and which aims at numerous objectives.

a) Political and management responsibility of the DP
Four organisms are foreseen, with specific tasks:
- Assembly of the Temporary Enterprise Association (TEA), composed by one representative for each member organisation
- Board of Directors, composed by the representatives of the leading organisations
- Stakeholders` Board, gathering representatives of the trade unions, entrepreneurial organisations and ethnic associations
- Central co-ordination office, consisting of the project leader, the project manager and consultants
While the Board of Directors and the Central office will play a political and co-ordination role, the management of the project will be granted by the Assembly and by the Stakeholders` Board.
This organisational framework assures the full and continuous participation to all partners and for the whole duration of the project. Each member of the DP has concrete responsibility in the implementation of the Actions and is involved in the TEA decisions, being a member of the Assembly.

b) Subdivision of labour for the implementation of the programme
The Board of Direction will assign the tasks to the leading-subjects, who are responsible for the co-ordination of the concrete activities each group. The various members of the partnership will manage their own financial part, under the political direction of the Board of Directors and in close co-operation with the Central co-ordination office who will send the summary to the competent regional authorities. The evaluation activities will be granted by the Stakeholders` Board, who will program it taking into consideration both the targets achieved and the information needs of the final beneficiaries; peculiar attention will be focused on the information campaigns and on the thematic workshops.
As for the transnational part, the Central co-ordination office will keep the contacts with the foreign partners and will involve the partners of the local DP when interested by one or more of the six thematic issues defined in the transnational partnership agreement.
The TEA will be responsible for the dissemination of the results of the DP`s activities: specifically, a web-site will be organised and a periodical bulletin will be distributed. Moreover, local press-media and radio broadcasting stations will be used, especially for relevant events.
National and international network will provide for constant possibilities of sharing experiences and of disseminating results, but will also help empowering the projects` means and the results of the specific actions.

c) Organisation of the relationship with the referring administrative authorities
The relationship between the Province of Udine and the referring administrative authorities will be managed by the Central co-ordination office, responsible for the concrete management of the whole project as for the general co-ordination, for the financial part and for the overall control, with respect of dead-lines and modalities indicated by the administrative authorities granting payments. The Central office will assign the formal tasks, will ask for earnest and prepare/transmit the necessary justification documents, besides certifying the advancing stages of the project.

d) Financial management
A special committee will include the administrators of the organisations managing directly the project resources. A single account plan for all the members of the TEA will be drawn, and there each partner will report its statement of expenses. Each administrator will certify the expenses through a declaration of affidavit: the data will be summarised by the leading-partner and then communicated to the referring administrative authorities.

The `E. Balducci Reception Centre and Cultural Promotion Association` was established in September 1992 when inaugurating the extension of the Reception Centre. The targets pursued by the Association are the promotion of culture, reciprocity, interdependence and solidarity. The idea was to set up a legally recognised Association to run the Centre, mainly to handle the economic side independently and to promote cultural initiatives, the main one being the important yearly convention that has always hosted nationally and internationally renowned operators as well as scholars who share the same ideals of non-violence, peace and tolerance amongst the populations and various cultures.
The Association and the Centre have been dedicated to father Ernesto Balducci, a teacher of faith, the culture of non-violence and peace, of solidarity and dialogue among cultures and different religions.
Hospitality at the Centre is not purely material, that is an immediate response, although of great importance, to the primary needs for a home and a job, but it is a meeting place with `other` people, different people, to foster and back them up in their orientation.
The aim to be pursued is that of hosting for a limited period (7-9 months) in the Centre, but in reality, it is often longer, also due to the fact that it is difficult to find rented accommodation at fair prices. In over 9 years, at least 130 people have been hosted.
The Association`s voluntary personnel divide their tasks in the following work areas: Cultural promotion and activity; Preparation of proceedings; Association news; Secretarial activities; Computerisation; Relations with schools,; Teaching of the Italian language; Hosting; Conviviality; Management and maintenance of various environments; Financial aspects.

The Association was established in 1994 at the end of a course for penitentiary voluntary assistants. The purpose of the Association is to favour the application of what the penitentiary system provides for, especially concerning the activities concerning social reinsertion of prisoners. Particular attention is paid to the modification provisions of the imprisonment, which allow a prisoner to reduce the imprisonment and plan courses for reinsertion in the society; this is intended with a view to limiting the social costs of imprisonment, reducing the risks of relapse and making the citizen environment prospective safer.
For two years, the Association has `managed` a small detention structure, in agreement with the Municipality, for those released from prison or for those who serve their sentence in other manners.
The Association, together with the educational area and imprisoned population, promotes the issue of a quarterly journal entitled `The voice in silence`. Recently, contacts have been made, through the collaboration of other associations, with a few lawyers to encourage the establishment of a group of lawyers to supply counselling and support the less affluent and foreign prisoners.
The Association is a member of the `Co-ordination of volunteer penitentiary bodies and associations - S.e.a.c.`.

Besides being a confederate trade union organisation, in extreme synthesis it is active in two main aspects:
- as collective representative of the individual worker, pensioners, weaker citizens;
- problems relating to the territory, to the economy development dynamics, services and welfare;
Since the 80s, this job association has been characterised for the commitment as regards immigration, creating a specific and articulated information and assistance service for immigrants and their families.
In effect, it has offered trade union type counselling, in matters of support, it has set up information and training courses relating to the workers rights, social security, safety and prevention of accidents, it has contributed to reducing the difficulties relating to knowledge on the tax system and, moreover, it has given adequate assistance as regard individual protection at work with and in the social environment.
The activities and services are not implemented through the traditional and consolidated structures, but, first of all, with the establishment of the Co-ordination of Immigrant Workers, which has now developed into a real trade union structure, the current CGIL Office of Rights that is able to intervene, promote, develop activities, initiatives and functional services to meet the many needs of the immigration world.
Moreover, CGIL has issued various publications, such as, the `Guide to the rights of the immigrant workers in Friuli Venezia Giulia` (2000) - within the `Ethnos and Demos` Integra project, co-ordinated by the Province of Udine - and the `Guide to the safety of foreign workers at work in Italy `(2001), both in co-operation with ALEF.

The activities of the municipality of Udine are mainly carried out through a tight network of desks reporting to the managers of the various services, who in turn depend on the general management of the municipality. These services are as follows: Secretarial and Contract Service, Organisation Sector, Demographic Service, Balance Sheets and Financial Sector, Cultural Activity, Theatrical, Educational and Sports Sector, Public Works Sector, Ecology and Environmental Hygiene Sector, Territorial Planning Sector, Social Services Sector.
The Municipal Council carries on its functions also with the help of commissions, which may be of a permanent nature or formed for specific purposes.
In order to offer functions and determined services in a coordinated manner, the municipality stipulates agreements with other local bodies.
Of much importance is the `Individual Intercommunal Desk for the Area of Udine`, which has assumed the primary task provided for by Regional Law n° 3/2001 to individually handle the proceedings concerning production activities right from the construction of the initial premises: the primary aim of the desk is substantially the standardisation and unification of the administrative procedures throughout the associated municipalities.
The municipality of Udine is very active as regards finding solutions to the problems of the immigrant population, a population, which has a strong impact on the municipal territory.
Among the various activities, those of the Centro di Ascolto are, without doubt, worthy of being emphasised. It has become a very important reference point for many immigrants trying to get orientated and looking for the information, which is very often necessary for the bureaucratic procedures and with which this portion of the population, especially those who have only just arrived in this national territory, has little familiarity. The Centro di Ascolto also carries on an important function of directing the users to associations and organisations who support the needs of the immigrant population.

The Economic and Social Research Institute (IRES) of Friuli Venezia Giulia, a non profit-making association, with a recognised legal status, which was established back in 1983, operates in the research, planning, assessment and training field aimed at promoting the economic and social development of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. Over the past few years, a particular effort has been made to promote immigration. The members of the Institute include many trade and trade union associations and emigrant and immigrant associations. The Institute avails itself of the collaboration of about 50 employees and collaborators soundly inserted in the company`s structure with four offices throughout the Friuli Venezia Giulia region.
As far as the field of research is concerned, the main lines have been associated with the job market, the industrial reconstruction of Friuli and the phenomena of emigration and immigration. In particular, as regards immigration, it is worth mentioning the activity of the immigration observatory, which processes a statistical yearbook on immigration in Friuli - Venezia Giulia. IRES has carried out many tasks for the Regional Employment Agency and other institutions to support the active employment policy planning. From the experience in training there are courses available for the employed and unemployed, both within the lines of action promoted by the FSE as well as directly by companies or private individuals.
Moreover, the institute has gained a vast experience in the planning, management and assessment of community programmes, having participated since 1989 as leader or member of a partnership, in over 15 projects associated with community initiatives, such as Occupazione, Adapt, Urban and Leonardo. IRES can, therefore, boast its extensive competence in the establishment and management of local, national and trans-national partnerships.

Radio Spazio 103, has some very particular features, which make it unique to some extent in the field of regional broadcasting. Most of all, it is distinguished for being an information radio that is very deep-rooted throughout the territory, with the aim of:
- promoting the historical, cultural and linguistic identity of Friuli;
- considering all the territorial problems and transformations, with particular regard to matters of a social and cultural nature.
As regards information, the radio station broadcasts 8 local radio news bulletins (with two being in the Friulan language -) and 5 Italian and international news bulletins. Moreover, there are daily transmissions with close examinations and debates (one entirely in Friulan), during peak hours for an informative radio with studio and telephone guests. These transmissions often deal with matters relating to immigration in Friuli, giving broadcasting space to representatives of immigrant associations. To this end, for over a year Radio Spazio 103 has included in its programme an hour of music and information by African immigrants.
In the entertainment field, many programmes deal with life in Friuli all round. Particular attention is given to the music of all types, in the best of their expression. As regards relations with the institutions, Radio Spazio 103 is currently a recognised interlocutor of some of the most diverse institutional bodies throughout the territory: Municipalities, the Province, the Region, Universities, entrepreneurial and trade, cultural and voluntary Associations.
The organisation consists of a well-built team (editorial, production, administration and marketing staff) that can also count on an important network of collaborators.
Radio Spazio 103 broadcasts 24 hours a day, 12 in direct. Radio Spazio 103`s user area covers the Provinces of Udine, Gorizia, Carnia, Tarvisio in full and part of the Province of Pordenone.

CISL is an organisation that represents workers from the various areas (agriculture, industry, civil servants, services) and pensioners, without any political or religious prejudice, through the trade union structures. In fact, CISL, although it has a significant number of workers from the catholic world, is a laic-based organisation, which tries to defend the interests of its members. For this reason, CISL does not only refer to the employed, but through a suitable political development, also assists the wide range of those who have a marginal or precarious position on the labour market (work at home, illegal work, etc) and those are excluded (the unemployed, youth, women, senior citizens, the disabled, etc.).
CISL is a confederation of trade unions forming a double organisation working at various territorial levels. On the one hand there are the trade structures, which organise workers in similar production fields (for example, in the chemical and metal-mechanical industry, banks, transportation, local bodies), on the other hand, there is an inter-trade organisation where all trades are members. Besides, its usual trade union activities representing the workers and dealing with disputes, CISL also offers a series of services guaranteed by bodies and associations connected to it. Among these are: CAF CISL offering its tax services; INAS - National Social Assistance Institute, assisting the workers with their rights regarding health, social security and social security assistance; ETSI - Italian Social Tourist Board, a specific CISL structure for the activities relating to social tourism, free time, culture and sport; SICET, Tenant, Housing and Territory Union, the association of tenants promoted jointly by CISL and ACLI to affirm the right to housing, social use of the territory and to protect the tenant in his/her relations with the property owners, whether they are private or public; ADICONSUM, consumer and user association, established in 1997.

IL FRIULI ALLA PROVA DELL`ACCOGLIENZA. NUOVE ETNIE E PROCESSI DI INTEGRAZIONE

Rationale

Text available in

Il problema che ci si propone di affrontare è costituito dalle criticità vecchie e nuove che ostacolano l`integrazione lavorativa e sociale degli immigrati, riconoscendo che si tratta di due dimensioni che vanno di pari passo e che la piena integrazione lavorativa è inscindibile da quella sociale. In questo senso si riconfermano le problematicità che erano state individuate nel Formulario di candidatura per l`ammissione all`Azione 1.
La dimensione statistica del problema, anche in base ai nuovi dati che si sono resi disponibili negli ultimi mesi, conferma la crescita della consistenza del fenomeno migratorio e il suo impatto sul territorio e sul sistema locale, nel senso sia degli stock che dei flussi.
La comunità immigrata nella provincia di Udine varia secondo gli indicatori statistici che prendiamo in considerazione. Se osserviamo i permessi di soggiorno al 31.12.2000 i cittadini stranieri soggiornanti sono 14.842 con una variazione percentuale del 19,2% rispetto all`anno precedente. Le donne costituiscono il 46,2% del totale e dimostrano come la questione di genere e le problematiche della famiglia che il progetto tiene molto in considerazione, in virtù dei sempre più frequenti ricongiungimenti familiari, hanno ormai una notevole importanza. I cittadini immigrati residenti in provincia di Udine al 31.12.2000 sono 11.463 unità con un aumento del 20,2% rispetto all`anno precedente. Interessante anche i dato sulle iscrizioni al Sistema Sanitario Nazionale che in provincia nel 2000 risultano essere11300 con una crescita del 24,7%: questa fonte è da considerarsi un buon indicatore dell`inserimento sociale degli immigrati e al tempo stesso un termometro della domanda di integrazione che proviene da questa componente. Oltre un terzo della popolazione immigrata residente in Friuli Venezia Giulia vive e lavora sul territorio della provincia di Udine seguita da Trieste, da Gorizia ed infine Pordenone. Un primato, questo, della provincia di Udine, destinato ad ampliarsi in conseguenza delle opportunità presenti sul territorio provinciale. La popolazione immigrata in provincia proviene in grande maggioranza dai Paesi dell`Europa Centro Orientale (più della metà del totale) Seguono per consistenza i Paesi della Unione Europea, i Paesi dell`Africa Centro Meridionale, quelli dell`Africa Settentrionale e del Medio Oriente, quelli dall`America Centro meridionale e, infine, dell`Asia Centro Orientale, La popolazione immigrata è passata dai 6.274 residenti del 1995 agli 11.463 del 1999 con un incremento di oltre il 50% ovvero un incremento annuale leggermente superiore al 10%. Si tratta di un incremento importante che compensa le perdite di popolazione della comunità locale e contribuisce a ridurre l`invecchiamento della medesima (vedi Annuari statistici dell`immigrazione curati dall`IRES). Anche l`incidenza percentuale degli immigrati residenti sulla popolazione totale della provincia si conferma in aumento essendo passata tra il 1999 e il 2000 da 1,8 al 2,2%. In aumento, anche se contenuta, l`incidenza dei minori che sono cresciuti dal 17,9 al 18,3 % sul totale degli immigrati: la presenza di questa componente e la sua crescita sono un fattore importante in quanto introduce problematiche nuove sul fronte dell`integrazione che non possono essere ignorate e che il progetto con alcuni degli interventi previsti tiene in forte considerazione

Dal punto di vista delle criticità ovvero delle discriminazioni che la comunità immigrata incontra nel percorso d`integrazione si riconfermano quelle evidenziate a suo tempo che coinvolgono tutto il ciclo del percorso di immigrazione, dalla partenza, all`arrivo, alla prima accoglienza, al ricongiungimento famigliare, alla stabilità nella comunità di accoglienza, ed all`eventuale rientro nei paesi d`origine per quelli che lo desiderano.

Nel momento della partenza si riconfermano le criticità relative: mancanza di una rete di contatto e di relazione presente nella comunità di accoglienza, del possesso delle competenze linguistiche e professionali, ovvero di competenze molto limitate e, soprattutto, della mancata programmazione dei flussi in entrata a cui si assommano le lungaggini relative all`ottenimento dei permessi e dei visti di ingresso.

All`arrivo, nella comunità di accoglienza, si manifestano le criticità relative: al senso di spaesamento conseguente all`impatto con la nuova società, alla insufficiente conoscenza della lingua, alla inadeguatezza della propria cultura del lavoro, di impresa e di professionalità, alla mancanza di strutture di prima accoglienza, dove abitare e vivere anche per periodi limitati, la insufficienza di abitazioni a buon mercato, la pletora di adempimenti burocratici anche in conseguenza della pluralità degli Enti pubblici e privati che operano nel campo dell`immigrazione, ed infine, la mancanza di informazioni e di mediatori linguistici, culturali e di comunità necessari per interloquire in maniera paritaria con il contesto locale.

Nel momento della prima stabilizzazione le maggiori criticità che si riconfermano anche in questa fase sono relative alle difficoltà dello sviluppo professionale ed alla necessità di incremento di reddito e sono legate principalmente ai rischi di segregazione professionale più pesanti per la componente femminile. La segregazione professionale evidenzia la mancanza di precondizioni a monte necessarie ad evitare il blocco del percorso professionale e di conseguenza anche di quello reddituale. Ci si riferisce alla scarsa conoscenza della lingua italiana, sia parlata che scritta, che di fatto limita lo sviluppo dei percorsi di crescita professionale e reddituale. In sostanza ancora oggi si presenta molto carente (sia nella comunità ospitante che nella comunità di immigrazione) la consapevolezza delle condizioni di base indispensabili ad attivare percorsi di mobilità ascendente e della necessità di prevedere per tempo i relativi comportamenti individuali e collettivi. La mobilità professionale presenta maggiori difficoltà relativamente alla possibilità opportunità di sviluppare dei percorsi imprenditoriali positivi per i vincoli e la complessità amministrativa, per la forte concorrenza che si registra nei diversi mercati, per la necessità di investimenti e di ricorso al credito necessario ad avviare l`attività.

Quando in seguito ai ricongiungimenti familiari si passa dalle problematiche dell`individuo a quelle della famiglia vengono riconfermate integralmente in questa fase le criticità già evidenziate:
- quelle relative alla mancanza di abitazioni con il rischio di trasformare le poche disponibili in ghetti con riflessi negativi sul valore delle stesse, sui rapporti di buon vicinato e sulla cultura dei proprietari che si dichiarano indisponibili ad affittare alla popolazione immigrata.;
- le difficoltà di accesso al credito per quei nuclei familiari che decidano di stabilirsi definitivamente sul territorio provinciale e si propongono di acquistare un`abitazione. Le attuali forme di credito, infatti, risultano tarate sui redditi della comunità di accoglienza e, di conseguenza, troppo elevate per essere sostenute dalla famiglia immigrata;
- la mancanza di servizi alla famiglia che quasi sempre si configura come un ostacolo per l`integrazione lavorativa di entrambi i coniugi, in primo luogo i servizi inerenti la cura dei figli: asili nido aziendali, condominiali o di quartiere;
- la qualità della scuola ancora oggi prevalentemente tarata sul target della comunità ospitante con riflessi negativi sugli abbandoni scolastici intesi come ostacolo per le futura integrazione lavorativa e sociale;
- le difficoltà a perseguire un giusto equilibrio tra i tempi di lavoro e quelli di vita con la relativa possibilità di reperire occupazioni part - time;
- la disponibilità di trasporti pubblici molti immigrati risiedono nella città capoluogo e lavorano nei comuni esterni, esempio più evidente il Distretto della Sedia;
- il rischio di perdita di identità da parte dei nuclei famigliari più giovani e l`esplosione di vere e proprie crisi di coppia con particolare riferimento al ruolo ed identità della donna.

Le criticità relative al processo di stabilizzazione ed integrazione definitiva propongono il tema della piena partecipazione politica sociale nella nuova comunità intesa come nuovo socio che entra a pieno titolo nella comunità, in particolare nella vita lavorativa con riferimento alla vita sindacale, alla gestione dei servizi ai cittadini (trasporti, mense, ecc.)
Un ulteriore elemento è rappresentato dalle criticità relative agli eventuali rientri particolarmente significativi se coinvolgono la seconda generazione cresciuta nel nuovo Paese, ma evidenti anche in coloro che appartengono alla prima generazione e che si propongono di rientrare dopo un periodo piuttosto lungo di permanenza all`estero.

Un ultimo fattore di criticità che si è aggiunto nell`ultimo periodo è quello relativo alla variazioni in corso nella legislazione nazionale in materia di immigrazione e in generale negli orientamenti a livello europeo: si sono introdotti infatti elementi di timore e di insicurezza anche nella popolazione immigrata residente da tempo sul territorio e desiderosa di completare il proprio percorso di inserimento sociale. Tali mutamenti paradossalmente rafforzano gli obiettivi di un progetto tutto incentrato sull`integrazione sociale e lavorativa degli immigrati.

Gli obiettivi generali che sono stati individuati nel Formulario di candidatura per l`ammissione all`Azione 1 e che vengono ora riconfermati sono:
- organizzare dei rapporti organici tra comunità di partenza e di arrivo al fine di anticipare la formazione linguistica, professionale, comunitaria, di facilitare ed accelerare le procedure burocratiche ed amministrative e la creazione di reti virtuose tra imprese strutture di formazione, uffici pubblici ed associazioni delle due aree interessate al percorso di immigrazione;
- superare, nel momento dell`inserimento nella comunità di accoglienza, il senso di spaesamento che coglie quasi tutti gli immigrati anche in conseguenza della scarsa ed inadeguata conoscenza della nuova realtà sociale e produttiva ma anche della necessità di superare i problemi della residenza provvisoria o definitiva e l`inadeguatezza della conoscenza della lingua e delle norme sul lavoro, e sui servizi della nuova società, ovvero la mancanza di mediatori linguistici di cui potersi fidare, ed infine ridurre la pletora di adempimenti burocratici;
- rimuovere, nella fase di stabilizzazione, i fenomeni di segregazione e di scarsa mobilità verticale anche per le difficoltà di riconoscimento delle competenze professionali acquisite e degli stessi titoli di studio già posseduti ovvero della mancanza nel nostro Paese di un percorso obbligatorio di educazione e formazione degli adulti;
- facilitare, nel momento del ricongiungimento famigliare, la soluzione dell`abitazione in affitto o in acquisto, contribuire alla custodia dei figli anche al fine di permettere il lavoro ad entrambi i genitori, provvedere alla qualificazione del sistema scolastico anche al fine di ridurre gli abbandoni, combattere la perdita di identità in particolare nelle coppie e nelle donne;
- realizzare, nel momento della stabilizzazione definitiva o del rientro nel Paese di origine, il pieno riconoscimento di diritti compresi quelli politici ed il riconoscimento dei contributi previdenziali ed assistenziali.

Sulla base di queste tematiche generali l`obiettivo principale del progetto viene riconfermato nella rimozione delle criticità - consolidate ed emergenti - che ostacolano una effettiva integrazione lavorativa e sociale degli immigrati stranieri presenti nella provincia di Udine e che, parallelamente, pregiudicano uno sviluppo integrato della comunità sociale provinciale.
L`obiettivo principale si articola in alcuni sub obiettivi:

1. Promuovere una capacità progettuale e propositiva dell`operatore pubblico e dei diversi soggetti che operano in materia di immigrazione al fine di monitorare i fenomeni quantitativi e qualitativi, di sviluppare un`azione di programmazione dei flussi necessari al buon funzionamento del mercato del lavoro, di semplificare i processi burocratici ed amministrativi al fine di accelerare i percorsi di inserimento lavorativo e sociale;

2. programmare e realizzare interventi nella comunità di origine dei flussi sperimentando partenariati, all`interno del più generale partenariato di sviluppo, tra comunità ed istituzioni di esodo e comunità ed istituzioni di arrivo per anticipare azioni di formazione e di programmazione dei flussi;

3. Adeguare la cultura del lavoro e di impresa con lo scopo di trasformare l`immigrato di oggi in un lavoratore che vive a pieno titolo nella comunità aziendale, sindacale, professionale, e contrattuale. Si tratta di un salto importante per tutti i diversi soggetti che operano sul tema del lavoro (sindacato, imprenditori, lavoratori, ecc.);

4. Creare le condizioni per sviluppare la mobilità professionale ascendente sperimentando forme di certificazione di competenze, individuando nuovi spazi professionali, sviluppare il tema del riconoscimento dei titoli di studio conseguiti all`estero;

5. Facilitare la ricerca dell`alloggio attraverso azioni sperimentali di creazione e di avvio di foresterie aziendali, attraverso il sostegno ad enti e strutture che operano nel campo della intermediazione immobiliare o che gestiscono fondi di rotazione utili a facilitare l`acquisizione (da parte di famiglie immigrate), in affitto oppure in proprietà, della casa;

6. Sostenere la famiglia immigrata ed il lavoro di entrambi i coniugi attraverso la sperimentazione di asili di azienda, di quartiere, di gruppi di famiglie;

7. Adeguare la cultura della cittadinanza per immigrati e residenti attraverso lo sviluppo di percorsi di: formazione degli adulti (lingua, cultura, norme, regole), di formazione degli operatori dei servizi pubblici e nelle organizzazioni private con riferimento al contesto di immigrazione (mercato del lavoro, scuola, formazione, sanità, assistenza, ecc.);

8. promuovere un programma di informazione nei confronti della comunità immigrata e quella di accoglienza relativamente alle esperienze degli altri Paesi Europei, sulle buone prassi di integrazione, sulle criticità ed opportunità che il fenomeno periodicamente manifesta;

9. Rafforzare la capacità di mediazione tra comunità di accoglienza e comunità di esodo con il fine di superare i punti di criticità che quotidianamente si manifestano sia sul tessuto produttivo che in quello sociale anche sperimentando nuove azioni di mediazione culturale nel campo del lavoro e dei servizi;

10. promuovere la realizzazione di figure nuove che operano nel campo dell`integrazione culturale e sociale, superando i differenti approcci al tema dell`immigrazione e sostenendo forme di collaborazione tra tutti i soggetti ed avviare infine strumenti nuovi come l`Agenzia delle mediazioni ed il centro multiculturale;

11. Sviluppare la conoscenza reciproca e la collaborazione propositiva e progettuale tra operatore pubblico, organismi istituzionali che operano nel campo dell`immigrazione e le associazioni che operano nella formazione, informazione, e lavoro ed associazioni degli immigrati che sempre più numerose si stanno costituendo sul territorio;

Dal versante della strategia generale, anche questa riconfermata rispetto a quanto affermato per l`ammissione all`Azione 1, la proposta raccoglie le sollecitazioni del DOCUP con riferimento all`innovazione, al partenariato di sviluppo, alla transnazionalità, al mainstreaming, alla partecipazione attiva. La risoluzione dei fenomeni di discriminazione della popolazione immigrata nel lavoro e nella società coglie appieno il tema dell`integrazione stabile tra politiche del lavoro e politiche sociali, il tema di una società dell`informazione non discriminatoria ed il tema di un giusto equilibrio tra sviluppo sociale e sviluppo occupazionale.

Dal versante della strategia per la costruzione del partenariato di sviluppo la proposta progettuale raccoglie un lavoro di ricerca intervento promosso dalla provincia di Udine e svolto dall`IRES con lo scopo di coinvolgere tutti i soggetti che operano sul territorio provinciale in materia di immigrazione per la realizzazione di una progettazione comune.
Il lavoro svolto nel corso dell`azione 1 ha permesso di consolidare i buoni risultati acquisiti nella fase precedente, mantenendo la ricchezza e la varietà dei soggetti presenti nel partenariato di sviluppo, anche in conseguenza ad un approccio profondamente unitario di tutti i partecipanti all`iniziativa progettuale.

Un elemento importante della strategia progettuale che merita di essere evidenziato è relativo alla necessità di valorizzare gli obiettivi e gli interventi progettuali al fine di amplificare la loro ricaduta nella società e nel contesto locale. Rimuovere le criticità all`integrazione significa agire sia dal versante della comunità di accoglienza che di immigrazione con lo scopo di trasformare l`immigrato di oggi in lavoratore e cittadino con gli stessi diritti e doveri del cittadino della società di accoglienza. Entrambe le comunità infatti possono `covare` uno spirito di separazione o ghettizzazione che, nel tempo, potrebbe ostacolare il percorso di integrazione. Una comunità integrata rappresenta un punto di arrivo importante perché supera la cultura della separazione ed offre a tutti importanti occasioni di mobilità sociale e culturale. Ci si propone di intervenire nei confronti della comunità immigrata tenendo bene in evidenza la ricaduta sulla società ed il contesto locale anche al fine di evitare chiusure nei confronti dell`iniziativa progettuale con particolare riferimento ai seguenti aspetti:
1. sostenere il percorso di stabilizzazione della popolazione provinciale che da alcuni decenni manifesta un inarrestabile processo di declino con continua perdita ed invecchiamento della popolazione. Tale fenomeno negativo tende ad affievolirsi anche grazie al contributo offerto dalla popolazione immigrata;
2. riequilibrare il degrado della popolazione dal punto di vista territoriale superando i grandi squilibri che tuttora persistono e penalizzano negativamente alcuni territori provinciali tra cui quello montano;
3. raggiungere un migliore e più duraturo equilibrio tra domanda ed offerta di lavoro con il fine di salvaguardare la struttura produttiva regionale a grave rischio per mancanza di manodopera (vedi settori tradizionali);
4. ampliare il numero di utenti e di clienti del sistema dei servizi alla popolazione sempre più sovradimensionati sia nella dimensione comunale, che provinciale, che regionale;
5. ampliare i percorsi di integrazione e stabilizzazione settoriale e territoriale della popolazione sul territorio provinciale;
6. Incrementare le relazioni sociali, commerciali, produttive tra la provincia di Udine e le aree di immigrazione.

Il progetto dedicherà un`attenzione particolare all`informazione sui temi oggetto d`intervento e alla diffusione delle iniziative attuate, ritenute strategiche per un`effettiva trasformazione culturale e dunque strutturale del territorio in rapporto agli immigrati. Il progetto avrà un proprio marchio (logo) che identificherà le diverse iniziative attuate e i vari soggetti coinvolti.

Innovation

Text available in

Gli elementi innovativi del progetto descritti per l`ammissione all`Azione 1 vengono riconfermati in questa fase. Il progetto si presenta innovativo:
- sul fronte della costruzione di rapporti stabili tra politiche sociali e del lavoro in quanto interviene con un approccio pragmatico nella sperimentazione di condizioni di lavoro e diritti sindacali paritari tra i lavoratori e si propone di sperimentare nuove forme di integrazione sociale;
- sul piano della società dell`informazione poiché si intende sperimentare una campagna di informazione per favorire logiche culturali di integrazione e per introdurre strumenti nuovi quali i sistemi esperti, la formazione a distanza, i workgroup;
- sul piano dello sviluppo sociale e su quello dell`occupazione in quanto crea le condizioni strutturali per il permanere sul territorio di segmenti produttivi ed imprese che, per mancanza di manodopera o per il tipo di lavorazione, rischiano altrimenti di essere trasferite in altri paesi.

Un fattore di innovazione è quello relativo al coinvolgimento dei beneficiari in tutto il ciclo degli interventi previsti: tale processo si articola nella successione di azioni di ricerca, progettazione, realizzazione dell`intervento, valutazione e disseminazione dei risultati. Fondamentale è senza dubbio il fatto che la valutazione degli interventi sia affidata al consiglio degli stakeholders all`interno del quale hanno un ruolo centrale i rappresentanti delle associazioni etniche.

Vengono riconfermati gli elementi innovativi relativi allo sviluppo: di metodi, approcci e strumenti; degli obiettivi delle azioni intraprese; del contesto inteso come sviluppo di sistemi collegati al mercato del lavoro.

Sul 1° punto si sottolinea l`importanza della:
- riqualificazione del terziario - pubblico e privato - di supporto all`immigrazione e dei loro operatori ed alla creazione di nuovi strumenti di supporto quali la FAD, Sistema esperto, CD rom;
- gestione programmata dei flussi di immigrazione relativamente all`introduzione di una metodologia di rilevazione del fabbisogno con gli uffici del lavoro regionali e nazionali ;
- creazione di figure professionali nuove nel campo della mediazione ed istituzione dell`albo dei mediatori;
- semplificazione delle procedure amministrative di interesse della popolazione immigrata .

Sul 2° punto si sottolinea l`importanza di obiettivi quali:
- sviluppo della mobilità verticale e di nuove figure professionali e riconoscimento dei titoli di studio esteri come ambito per l`occupazione qualificata;
- la creazione di figure specializzate nella mediazione.
Sul 3° punto si sottolinea:
- miglioramento delle condizioni di lavoro attraverso lo sviluppo della contrattazione territoriale e aziendale con il coinvolgimento di organizzazioni sindacali e datoriali ;
- partenariato di sviluppo inteso come: modalità di costruzione del gruppo, metodo di lavoro collettivo, risorsa strategica per lo sviluppo del processo di integrazione.

Agreement Summary

Text available in

Le modalità organizzative adottate nella gestione della PS sono state ripetutamente approfondite in incontri e riunioni collegiali e ristrette, al fine di formulare un modello organizzativo razionale adeguato alla gestione di un progetto di carattere sperimentale, per sua natura complesso sia per il numero e la diversità dei partner coinvolti, sia per il livello particolarmente elevato degli obiettivi e dei risultati attesi che ci si propone di perseguire e raggiungere. Una sperimentazione dunque da supportare con un modello organizzativo equilibrato tra il centro e le periferia per quanto attiene la distribuzione del lavoro e delle responsabilità senza eccessi di protagonismo e marginalità.

a) `Responsabilità di indirizzo e di gestione della partnership.

Relativamente alle responsabilità di indirizzo e di gestione della partnership sono stati previsti nell`accordo di partenariato allegato quattro organismi: assemblea dell`ATI, Consiglio di Amministrazione dell`ATI, Ufficio Centrale di Coordinamento, Consiglio degli Stakeholders - chiamati con diverse responsabilità alla gestione del progetto. L`Ufficio di coordinamento Centrale e il Consiglio di Amministrazione dell`ATI sono chiamati a svolgere la funzione e di indirizzo della PS, mentre le funzioni di gestione sarà assicurata anche attraverso l`Assemblea e il Consiglio degli Stakeholders.
I comitati si riuniranno periodicamente e saranno tenuti appositi verbali delle riunioni con le deliberazioni che di volta in volta saranno assunte.
Il meccanismo di gestione che si è andati a costituire assicura la piena e continuativa partecipazione di tutti i soggetti alle attività della PS per tutta la durata dell`intervento consentendo anche alle le piccole organizzazioni la possibilità di partecipare a pieno titolo alle decisioni sulla gestione complessiva del progetto attraverso la partecipazione all`assemblea all`interno della quale ogni soggetto individuerà un proprio rappresentante.
Per la realizzazione delle azioni queste saranno coordinate dai soggetti capofila che provvederanno a coordinare le azioni degli altri partner che contribuiranno alla realizzazione dei singoli interventi. Va sottolineato come il progetto individua dei compiti ben precisi per tutti i soggetti coinvolti e assicura anche alle piccole realtà associative delle responsabilità concrete come si può evincere anche dalla descrizione del ruolo e delle attività di ciascun organismo nell`ambito della PS (punto 2.2.8.7 del formulario)

b) Suddivisione delle responsabilità per l`esecuzione materiale del programma di lavoro approvato.

Relativamente alla responsabilità per l`esecuzione materiale del programma di lavoro il Consiglio di Amministrazione dell`ATI affiderà con proprie deliberazioni gli incarichi di lavoro ai soggetti capofila e agli altri partner dell`azione progettuale: in particolare ai partner capofila verrà affidata un`attività di suddivisione e di coordinamento di tutti gli interventi e i prodotti che afferiscono alla propria area di attività, mentre ai singoli partner verrà affidata la realizzazione degli interventi specifici, ovvero dei prodotti e dei servizi così come definiti dalla proposta progettuale.
I diversi soggetti attuatori realizzeranno per la loro parte la relativa gestione finanziaria del progetto, rendicontando periodicamente i costi sostenuti all`Ufficio di Coordinamento centrale che provvederà a sua volta all`azione di riepilogo e alla trasmissione agli organismi regionali di controllo e di erogazione del finanziamento.
Il soggetto capofila tramite l`Ufficio di Coordinamento e il Consiglio di amministrazione provvederà per tempo a formulare un piano dei conti standardizzato sulla base del quale tenere la contabilità, tenere il Centro di Costo del progetto correlato alla contabilità generale.
L`attività di autovalutazione viene assicurata dal comitato degli stakeholders, come previsto dal documento di costituzione dell`ATI allegato al progetto. A tal fine il comitato svolge compiti di impostazione e coordinamento del piano di valutazione e dei singoli prodotti, formula i fabbisogni di informazione e conoscenza dei beneficiari finali e orienta le campagne di informazione, i workshop tematici valutandone periodicamente i risultati
Relativamente alla gestione dell`attività transnazionale ci si baserà sul principio della partecipazione ai costi e sui meccanismi di reciprocità In sostanza si contribuirà alla gestione delle parti comuni del progetto attraverso rapporti di lavoro e di risorse all`incirca della stessa identità e misura. Per l`attività transnazionale è prevista l`individuazione di un Coordinatore nominato dalla Provincia di Udine che dovrà mantenere i contatti con i partner che hanno sottoscritto l`accordo di cooperazione, provvedere all`organizzazione delle attività coinvolgendo di volta in volta i soggetti della PS interessati dagli interventi previsti nelle sei aree tematiche individuate all`interno dell`accordo di cooperazione, monitorare a livello locale l`andamento delle attività che andranno ad impattare sugli interventi previsti nell`accordo di cooperazione transnazionale.
Relativamente alla diffusione dei risultati delle attività (prodotti, strumenti, metodologie, ecc.) della PS, alla pubblicizzazione e alla resa di dominio pubblico degli stessi l`ATI si doterà degli strumenti necessari e ritenuti più efficaci per rispondere a questa esigenza primaria. In particolare sarà attivo un sito internet all`interno del quale sarà di volta in volta reso fruibile il materiale prodotto dai vari partner, la descrizione periodica delle attività realizzate e dello stato di avanzamento dei lavori. La PS si doterà anche di un bollettino che sarà reso disponibile non solo per i soggetti dell`ATI, ma anche a tutti i potenziali soggetti esterni interessati. Inoltre in occasione di incontri ed eventi di particolare importanza si provvederà a dare risalto alle iniziative utilizzando i canali della stampa locale, oltre naturalmente a sfruttare le potenzialità delle emittenti radiofoniche che partecipano direttamente al progetto.
La PS è inoltre composta da organismi che operano e sono coinvolte in ampie reti nazionali e internazionali: questo caratteristica garantirà la capacità di diffusione a largo spettro dei risultati conseguiti nonché la possibilità di un continuo confronto con altre realtà e iniziative analoghe o simili che operano attualmente sullo stesso target e si confrontano con problematiche analoghe. Queste possibilità di scambio contribuiranno ad ampliare il livello di conoscenze e di competenze presenti all`interno della PS consentendo anche delle modifiche e dei miglioramenti in itinere delle singole azioni sulla base dei nuovi elementi acquisiti

c) Organizzazione delle modalità di gestione dei rapporti con le Amministrazioni referenti.

I rapporti con le amministrazioni referenti dall`Amministrazione Provinciale di Udine, attraverso l`Ufficio Centrale di coordinamento dell`ATI, che provvede: alla sottoscrizione degli incarichi e delle altre obbligazioni necessarie alla realizzazione del progetto; alla richiesta della anticipazioni; all`emissione dei relativi documenti giustificativi; alla messa a punto e trasmissione della documentazione necessaria ad attestare gli stati di avanzamento del progetto; alla realizzazione di tutti gli atti necessari a rendicontare il monitoraggio finanziario, fisico e procedurale secondo i tempi e le modalità stabilite dalle amministrazioni concedenti.
L`ufficio di coordinamento stabilirà al momento del primo avvio della fase 2 le procedure amministrative, la modulistica di dettaglio, la catena delle responsabilità, indispensabile ad una efficace gestione amministrativa interni all`ATI ed in relazione alla richieste degli organi ministeriali di coordinamento e controllo per preparare ed organizzare il partenariato alle visite ispettive periodicamente predisposte dagli uffici regionali e/o ministeriali

d) Modalità di gestione dei contributi finanziari, soprattutto con riferimento alla contabilizzazione e certificazione delle spese.
Per la gestione finanziaria si provvederà alla costituzione di un comitato che comprende tutti gli amministratori delle organizzazioni chiamate a gestire direttamente risorse in attuazione del progetto.
La gestione dei contributi finanziari del progetto verrà realizzata attraverso la messa a punto di un piano dei conti unico per tutti i partecipanti all`ATI. I medesimi partecipanti provvedono all`apertura di un centro di costo collegato alla contabilità generale in cui rendicontare tutte le spese sostenute in attuazione del progetto. Il centro di costo terrà evidenza sia delle dimensioni dei costi che dei ricavi. Il centro di costo è sempre a disposizione delle autorità interessate al controllo finanziario.
Relativamente alla certificazione delle spese le singole amministrazioni provvederanno a formulare una dichiarazione di atto notorio in cui si attestano le spese sostenute in attuazione del progetto. Tale dichiarazione e i relativi allegati (schede contabili, fotocopie autenticate dei documenti contabili) saranno riepilogati dal soggetto capofila ed inviate alle amministrazioni referenti.
Il soggetto referente provvederà periodicamente all`erogazione dei contributi ai diversi partner del progetto in misura proporzionale all`impegno di lavoro e ai budget a suo tempo stabiliti. I partner del progetto sono chiamati ad emettere fatture che attestino le spese sostenute. Il soggetto referente effettuerà anche monitoraggi periodici dei budget allocati ai vari partner per verificarne la gestione corretta.
La gestione amministrativa e finanziaria è assicurata da un`organizzazione in grado di gestire fondi pubblici come testimoniato dalle esperienze di numerosi soggetti coinvolti ed in particolare dal fatto che un ruolo centrale in questo senso sarà svolto dall`Amministrazione Provinciale di Udine.

Empowerment

 With beneficiaries

I beneficiari della nostra iniziativa progettuale sono i lavoratori ed i cittadini immigrati che vivono ed operano nella provincia di Udine che trovano difficoltà ad inserirsi a pieno titolo nel mercato del lavoro e nella comunità locale.
La partecipazione dei beneficiari all`iniziativa è avvenuta fin dall`avvio attraverso il coinvolgimento di tutte le associazione etniche presenti in provincia raccolte nell`UCAI con la messa a punto dell`idea progettuale e del partenariato di sviluppo ovvero partecipando a pieno titolo a tutto il lavoro di ricerca intervento realizzato prima della compilazione del formulario di candidatura.
Tale coinvolgimento proseguirà con la partecipazione dell`UCAI alla gestione diretta dell`azione `Partecipazione e strutture comuni` per la progettazione di un centro multietnico inteso come la casa delle associazioni etniche.
Anche nelle altre azioni progettuali, pur gestite da altri soggetti, un momento importante sarà sempre costituito dal contatto diretto con la popolazione immigrata, diretto o mediato dalle associazioni etniche, per raccogliere una serie di elementi che potranno consentire un progettazione e una realizzazione di prodotti mirati e tarati il più possibile sulle esigenze reali dei beneficiari finali. Ad esempio per quanto riguarda l`azione denominata `Supporti familiari` e l`intervento relativo alla sperimentazione di asili nido interaziendali, condominiali o di quartiere, la prima fase vedrà immancabilmente il coinvolgimento il più ampio possibile delle donne immigrate, e più in generale delle famiglie, destinatarie degli interventi al fine di cogliere esattamente i loro bisogni specifici.

Il coinvolgimento dei beneficiari si concretizza inoltre con la partecipazione all`Assemblea dell`ATI e al consiglio degli Stakeholders dell`UCAI e delle Associazioni etniche, al Consiglio di Amministrazione del`UCAI ovvero i tre organismi istituzionali posti in essere dal partenariato di sviluppo per la concreta realizzazione del progetto.
Al Consiglio degli stakeholders viene affidato il compito di valutare il progetto con una specifica sezione rivolta a raccogliere l`opinione dei soggetti beneficiari.
Il progetto, attraverso le associazioni etniche e le altre associazioni che operano nel campo dell`immigrazione, si propone di raccogliere le opinioni dei cittadini immigrati attraverso gli interventi previsti nell`azione `Informazione e sensibilizzazione` ovvero l`organizzazione di workshop tematici alcuni dei quali sono relativi alla presentazione delle azioni e degli interventi progettuali con il fine di realizzare un percorso di validazione ovvero di raccogliere suggerimenti utili al miglioramento dell`iniziativa progettuale.
Anche le campagne di informazione previste rivestono un ruolo importante per informare e coinvolgere i beneficiari immigrati ed in parte anche la comunità locale per la presentazione del progetto ma anche per divulgare le esperienze di buone prassi.

I partner della PS sono stati coinvolti nell`iniziativa progettuale attraverso un lavoro di ricerca-intervento promosso dalla Provincia e realizzato che ha anticipato una parte delle iniziative che la progettazione Equal affida all`azione1 facilitando la messa a punto del progetto e del partenariato di sviluppo. I partner hanno ratificato la volontà già espressa nella fase precedente sottoscrivendo l`associazione temporanea di impresa. Il documento evidenzia le regole comuni necessarie per la gestione del progetto fino alla sua conclusione. La struttura di gestione del progetto prevede:
1. l`Assemblea dell`A.T.I. composta da un rappresentante per ognuna delle organizzazioni associate con compiti di valutazione periodica dello sviluppo delle attività progettuali con particolare riferimento al livello di soddisfazione dei beneficiari, alle relazioni transnazionali ed a quelle con i soggetti;
2. il Consiglio degli Stakeholders, composto dai rappresentanti delle associazioni di categoria e delle associazioni etniche partecipanti all`associazione temporanea di impresa con compiti valutazione del progetto con particolare riferimento all`impatto delle azioni e degli interventi sui beneficiari finali;
3. il Consiglio di amministrazione dell`A.T.I. composto dai rappresentanti delle organizzazioni capofila, individuate per il coordinamento e la gestione delle azioni previste dal progetto, con compiti di intervento al fine di rispettare e migliorare la tempistica di realizzazione del progetto, a verificare gli impatti positivi e negativi delle diverse azioni;
4. l`Ufficio Centrale di Coordinamento dell`ATI, composto da project leader, project manager e dai consulenti che verranno individuati dall`Amministrazione Provinciale di Udine per l`attuazione e il coordinamento generale del progetto;
La PS come si è configurata fino ad ora appare autosufficiente; ciononostante si ipotizza la possibilità di allargare la partecipazione al Consiglio degli Stakeholder mediante la sottoscrizione di protocolli di intesa con altre associazioni etniche. Si vuole garantire una partecipazione ampia fermo restando che la PS rimane l`unica responsabile dei risultati e del buon fine delle risorse. Le 11 azioni avranno un responsabile ed alcuni soggetti attuatori con lo scopo di allargare il livello di partecipazione e coinvolgimento di tutti coloro che partecipano alla PS. Il coinvolgimento tra i partner prevede la stesura di regolamenti per il funzionamento di tutti gli organismi previsti dal partenariato, la definizione di regole di comunicazione al fine di garantire la piena visibilità. La cooperazione tra i partner si doterà di strumenti informatici di gestione flessibile come i workgroup management allo scopo di pianificare le macro fasi del progetto, definire i diversi gruppi di lavoro, distribuire ed archiviare documenti, monitorare le diverse variabili del progetto.
