The Project, which ended on 31/03/2022, had the objective of experimenting the construction of an integrated network aimed at responding to the training and work needs of citizens of Third Countries in some Italian territories.
Methodology
The project involved the use of multiple methodologies and tools, developed by Roma Tre research group, and submitted in training modules to the operators of local agencies for the instruction and training of young migrants. There were seven modules, all characterized by two closely related aspects: a theoretical section for study and reflection, and a laboratory section, for the practical use of methodologies and tools and also for reflection
In each module participants are asked to use a personal computer to fill in the provided tools.<br>

3. The Analysis of the values Methodology: the operator leads the subject in carrying out three exercises: the first to detect and analyze the values that the subject identifies as their own; the second to reflect on the place that the identified values occupy in her/his current existence and in relation to her/his time; the third to place its values in the perspective of professional and life development. The operator emphasizes that the work is not finished and that the subject can add any other elements over time. 1) She/he has entered in the table the values she/he feels his own and has indicated their weight (+/- important) 50
2) She/he elaborated a reflection on the place of her/his own values in his current life 40
2) She/he has entered its values in relation to time (past, present and future) 46
3) She/he has elaborated a reflection on which elements could allow the realization of her/his values in the future 38<br>

4. The role of values in one's life Methodology: the operator leads the subject in carrying out two exercises: 1. to imagine two possible life paths consistent with her/his values; 2. to focus attention on the things that the subject would like to do and that he is unable to do, identifying the causes. The operator emphasizes that the work is not finished and that the subject can add any other elements over time. First exercise: imagine two different and possible life paths (two future autobiographies) consistent with one's own values
She/he elaborated two life paths 25
She/he elaborated only one life path 15

5. Developing the art of living Methodology: the operator supports the subject in two exercises. In the first, a form consisting of three columns is presented: c1- assertions regarding behavior linked to existence are inserted; c2- propositions describing the previous assertions are inserted; c3- using a scale of levels, the subject must attribute a weight to each assertion / proposition. In the second exercise, a form consisting of two columns is presented: c1- the previous assertions are reported; c2- the subject must describe how he could perform the behaviors indicated in the assertions (adapted from Bernaud 2015, pp. 184-186). The operator emphasizes that the work is not finished and that the subject can add any other elements over time. First exercise: in the third column, enter the level of importance for each proposition
She/he filled in the table entirely 37
She/he partially filled in the table (4 to 7) 5
She/he minimally filled in the table (1 to 3) 0
