  As researchers for the Social Media Bridge project, part of the "bridge - Berliner Netzwerk für Bleiberecht" network, we develop and implement approaches for outreach information and referral counselling for refugees in Germany in seven languages, using simple language on all WIR counselling topics. The project aims to counteract misinformation in social media, support target groups not reached by local WIR networks, and assist WIR networks in developing their online skills. As a member of the SOMB team, I am committed to contributing to including refugees in the regional labour market through innovative and practical approaches in social media outreach. Show less
