About New Neighbours
The aim of New Neighbours is to highlight the positive social and economic contributions made by migrants and refugees throughout communities across Europe. By promoting direct participation in media production and intercultural dynamics, it is hoped to foster tolerance and acceptance for migrants and refugees in EU member states.
In the past two years, we have worked with:
- Public service media,
- Community media
- Civil society organisations,
to challenge stereotypes and expose commonly held myths, placing migrant voices at the heart of discussions on migration and delivering innovative messaging in order to help promote the integration of migrants into local communities.
To raise awareness on these topics, we have used:
- Documentaries produced by public service media
- Social media-based campaigns
- Community media productions
- Country reports and interviews on Media and Migration
New Neighbours also builds stronger links between media and community organisations. This improves the flow of information between one another and contributes to deliver the message to a wider and more diverse audience.
New Neighbours is a project by the European Broadcasting Union and its project partners CMFE – Community Media Forum Europe, COMMIT, COSPE Onlus and MDI – Media Diversity Institute.
New Neighbours is funded by the European Union’s Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund and by the U.S. Agency for Global Media.
