Financial support and advice for local projects that bring us together

was-bewegt-ici-Filmbäckerei

«ici. here together.» supports initiatives on coexisting with equal opportunities.

Many people in Switzerland are multilingual and feel at home moving between different worlds of lived experience – we are a migration society. This is the starting point for «ici. gemeinsam hier.», which supports projects in any of the following areas:

  • Enabling intercultural encounters in everyday life
  • Facilitating bringing up young children to be multilingual
  • Steering working-age adults towards career choices

These projects are to be realised with an intercultural team and local volunteers. Possible projects include language cafés, intercultural meet-ups, toddler groups, clubs, community meetings, youth groups and so on.
