This year, the district of Ludwigsburg, in cooperation with the employment agency and municipalities in the district, is once again organizing the series of events "Migrantinnen starten durch!" to support the professional and social integration of migrant women.
The series of events is intended to support women with a history of migration in their social and professional integration. The aim is to strengthen and promote their position as women. To this end, the events highlight opportunities and possibilities and provide suggestions for shaping their professional and social future. In addition to migrant women, the target group also includes public offices, institutions, associations and organizations, which, as multipliers for women with a migration background, represent an important source of information on site and can provide significant impetus. At a market of opportunities, exhibitors will provide information about district-wide and local integration offers, vocational training offers, career re-entry and women-specific issues. At the same time, the participants will discuss current needs and challenges, ideas and wishes with the visitors.
The series of events is based on the idea of reaching migrant women locally in the municipalities and towns and encouraging them to seize opportunities for professional and social participation.
The District Administrator of the Ludwigsburg district, Dietmar Allgaier, is delighted that the tried-and-tested concept will be continued in 2020: "With the 'Migrantinnen starten durch' series of events, the Ludwigsburg district has established a concept that presents women with low-threshold offers for social and professional integration locally in their community and close to home in the district. The extremely successful events in 2019 have shown that this offer is well received and accepted."
Martin Scheel, Head of the Ludwigsburg Employment Agency, sees this series of events as an opportunity to reach even more women with a migration background and counteract possible disadvantages. "We want all people living here to be able to make full use of their potential. We can only achieve this if we offer our fellow citizens with foreign roots very targeted information and advice opportunities."
The first event in the "Migrantinnen starten durch!" series in 2020 will take place on February 12, 2020 at the Bürgerhaus in Remseck-Aldingen from 9:30 am to 11:30 am. Another event is planned for May 7, 2020 in Vaihingen/Enz.
