KITE is a multilingual first-aid communicative kit for humanitarian emergency situations which will also work as the first linguistic immersive experience for migrants and refugees with no prior knowledge of the host language. The several initiatives within this WP will shape a set of basic communication tolos for this target group, which will be hosted into an online open-access platform. These materials will be created in seven European languages: English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, German, Italian, and Polish.
The purpose of KITE is to help to diminish the cultural shock that refugees experience when arriving in a new country, a shock that is especially significant in the case of adults. As already stated, the linguistic adaptation in the host community, addressing people’s first necessities in a critical moment (which is the first contact with a new community, culture, and society), is key to obtaining real integration. That is why the contents of this WP are built around the vital communicative needs of this target group, who have no prior knowledge of the language and host society.
Guide
A guide will be created to facilitate the learning of the KITE materials: a detailed description, an applicability guide, learning activities and good practices. All the products will be available in the same online platform, which will be offered in open access format to promote accessibility and development of the digital sphere.
