SOCIAL WORKERS

INTERVENTION FOR
MIGRANTS IN
EUROPEAN COUNTRIES
INTRODUCTION

People have been moving to various parts of the world for various reasons
back in the years; some move to join their family at their workplaces,
some go for educational purposes, some for economic reasons, and some
to seek employment. Some have been exposed to hostilities, and flying
out has saved their lives. Terrorism, persecution, and human rights abuses
have been reasons for migration from one country to the next. Some
examples include unfavorable consequences of natural disasters, e.g.,
catastrophes and climatic changes.

SOCIAL WORKERS INTEGRATING THE STRATEGY
ACCULTURATION.

The acculturation process represents a multi-dimensional procedure that


connects the encounters between the immigrants' inheritance and
exposure to the new culture. This process involves harnessing intergroup
contact and entailing mutual changes in attitude. Acculturation is a
complicated approach that starts when the receiving culture's customs and
values clash with the immigrants' heritage and occurs when interaction
within groups, both settlers and the receiving societies, changes their
behavior and beliefs.
FULFILLING THE ESSENTIAL NEEDS: PROVIDING THE BASIC
NEEDS

Substantially, the procedure for integration involves equally accessing the welfare
system to point out what the settlers primarily need, the basic needs, and what would
make their living comfortable. Even though the current crisis may lead to further
poverty and social exclusion, this may inhibit the social workers' ability to cope with
immigrants' needs. Still, all these considerations by the host country's government to
help take care of the needs of the accepted immigrants; the government helps by
incorporating immigrants into the labor market to conceal their work and contributes to
sustaining themselves
INTEGRATION OF FORMAL AND INFORMAL
SOCIAL SUPPORT
This research proposes a view of the migrant interaction that emphasizes a
combination of non-official and official support as a required condition to
boost the social efficacy interventions, presuming the complementary
nature of official and informal support systems. The development of
treatments aimed at fostering and bolstering constructive informal support
networks in migrant communities is given special attention.
INTERVENTIONS AT THE LOCAL LEVEL PUBLIC SERVICE

An uneven distribution of resources, influenced by socioeconomic and political variables, is the


leading cause of challenges faced by immigrants. Support through dyadic interactions, social
networks, or self-help groups can address some of their needs. However, it is insufficient to
address the issues that immigrants face concerning, among other things, work, places of stay,
legal instability, racial prejudice, attainable healthcare and educational opportunities, and
participation socially. In light of this, community interventions strongly emphasize the
involvement of immigrants in identifying communal needs, creating ways to label the needs
required, and applying measures to reach them. To empower communities and engage in social
activities with the ultimate goal of fostering the equal distribution of resources, power, and
social change, social networks and reciprocal support serve as the foundation.
MUTUAL AID GROUPS

Mutual aid organizations' primary goal is to strengthen existing neighbors'


ties to expand and improve support networks. Own individual help
groups, therapy from groups, and support groups are the three main
categories of reciprocal groups that have traditionally had definitions.
Therapeutic groups have been left out of this taxonomy due to their
clinical nature, even though they may be helpful for immigrant groups
struggling psychologically, such as with depression, post-traumatic stress
disorder, and anxiety
SOCIAL NETWORK INTERVENTION

To enhance support exchanges, social network interventions often include measures to locate
and activate migrant communities' informal sources of resources. At this level, identifying
influential community members who offer their counterparts various forms of support is the
primary responsibility of specialists in social intervention. Professionals would take on the
roles of specialist consultants or counselors to boost, promote, and improve the support
transactions that happen naturally in interactive relationships. The associations of immigrant
members and grassroots arrangements, leaders of religion, stores, individuals owning cafés,
or immigrants' extensive experienced immigrants in the nation and close relationships with
the community can all be valuable origins of informal support in immigrant areas
DYADIC INTERVENTION

The primary way new sources of support are incorporated into immigrant
communities' social networks is through dyadic interventions centered on
encouraging exchanges in interpersonal levels of assistance and assets in
dyadic interactions. Social mediation and volunteer help are examples of
interventions at this level
VOLUNTARY SUPPORT

Adding new informal relationships through volunteers differs from expanding the
network and improving support exchanges. Volunteers are those who give a variety of
sorts of help responsibly, without personal gain or financial compensation, for the good
of the community, as part of an organized social program. Volunteers are informal
helpers and aid-givers, not professionals, whose activities result from dedication to
social equality, group wellbeing, and genuine respect for the people they will support.
Volunteers may provide information on places of work and accessibility to housing,
relationships with locals, culture and values, and practical aid in various tasks, such as
studying languages when working with migrant communities.
SOCIAL MEDIATION

Social mediation is a tool for solving the conflict involving a


third party in a social context, placing individuals and
communities worldwide together to encourage better
relationships and reduce available conflicts. It has been a
sensitive issue in social work and other interventions with
migrant populations in some European countries
CONCLUSION
The urge to combine formal and informal help in social work with settlers has been
highlighted in this Work by the typology of social support interventions presented.
However, social work and social assistance in immigration, in particular, are not value-
free. The value of practitioners and the broader society influences how requirements and
significant problems are found, the choice of goals and intervention tactics, and the
nature of the interaction between experts and the community. Implementing social
policies that are degrading and inhumane toward migratory populations, the profession
of social work may support injustices and inequalities that maintain power structures that
exclude marginalized groups of people
