At a time when migration debates across Europe are increasingly polarised, the EU-funded project “VOICES” proved, through its fourth major event, that inclusive and collaborative approaches to integration are not only possible, but necessary.
​
From 13 to 15 January 2026, a diverse coalition of local authorities from southern Italy, EU officials, international students, civil society representatives, and migrant citizens gathered in Brussels to exchange perspectives and develop concrete strategies for a more united Europe. At the heart of the High-Level Summit was a delegation of 17 mayors from Calabria, led by the town of Rosarno. Together, they committed to implementing a Local Action Plan Against Racism and for Integration in their communities by the end of the year, sending a clear message to EU institutions: united, we are stronger...
“VOICES From Migrations" is a project co-funded by the European Union exploring untold migration stories. Isaac Christoforidis was born in Armenia as a Pontic Greek, and he moved to Greece in 1995. This is his story:

​
“I am Lindita Lazy, I’m from Albania, and I came to Greece in 1996, following my father, who had already settled here. Life in Albania was not hard during my youth, but when communism fell and democracy arrived, everything became unstable. I decided to leave as the situation worsened: a Greek neighbor near my father’s house helped us a lot.

Testimonials
“From the time I arrived, I started learning, meeting new people and making memories. This is my first EU event and the experience is really European. When we started working together I got to see different perspectives on different things. I have a long way ahead. This event helped me to be more socially active, express myself and made me a team player.”

"The Rome Hackathon was my first ever. I was not sure what to expect but I hoped I would be able to come up with interesting solutions for the challenge, learn new things in the process, and get to meet new people. It's been 3 days since I got back and I still can't believe how great it was. It exceeded my hopes in all ways possible."
