O projekcie

The project “My chance in Poland” is implemented as part of the project “SZANSA – new opportunities for adults”, co-financed by the European Union under the Operational Programme Knowledge Education Development 2014-2020. The leader of the project “My chance in Poland” is CASE – Centre for Social and Economic Analysis (www.case-research.eu) and the Partners and training providers are Foundation for Somalia (www.fds.org.pl) and Ocalenie Foundation (www.ocalenie.org.pl).

The aim of the project “My chance in Poland” is to increase the basic skills of foreigners with the right to legal employment in Poland. Persons participating in the project will be able to improve the level of their skills in understanding and creating information, mathematical reasoning, digital skills and social competences through support comprising training, counselling and, for those willing to participate, psychological assistance.

The support within the framework of the project “My chance in Poland” may be used by a person who

  1. is at least 25 years old,
