About the Project

The objective of our project is to increase the competences (attitudes, knowledge, skills) of Migrants for improving their Digital Health Literacy (DHL). Specifically, the project aware Migrants about the importance of Digital Health Literacy and develops Digital Health Skills within the Migrants population and empower them to play a more active role in their health self-management, strengthening the aspects related to the prevention and treatment of COVID-19 and other similar situations. Migrants peers are involved and trained to be able to support Newcomer Migrants. Finally, Health Professionals are trained to be able to support the Migrants population.
