Momentum

Diversifying career paths

We help creating future opportunities for immigrants.

Career paths

The project aims to lower the threshold towards studies and worklife. We are working with people, who would unlikely be reaching to college or university studies. With the project actions, we encourage people to think and recognize their future possibilities and also reach their dreams.

The project utilizes art-oriented methods which can be used to strengthen participation and interaction and learn new skills that can be transferred to working life.
