Further opportunities for migrants in Spain: Integration programmes

Spain is a country that attracts many migrants from all over the world. But sometimes they need extra help to integrate into their new environment and to start working. In this article, we will tell you about different integration programmes and help with finding a job in Spain.

Integration programmes

The Spanish government provides various integration programmes for migrants to help them settle into their new environment. Through these programmes, migrants can receive information about the culture, language and social norms of Spain as well as an official status that allows them to work and live in the country.

  • One such programme is Keys to Integration, which gives migrants access to information on various services such as health, education and legal aid. The programme also organises free Spanish language and cultural adaptation courses.
  • Another programme, Bridges for Integration, is intended for migrants who already have residency status in Spain. It provides access to vocational training and education courses as well as assistance in finding a job.

Assistance in finding a job

Finding a job can be challenging for migrants, particularly if they do not have language skills or local work experience. However, there are many organisations in Spain that offer job search assistance to migrants.

  • One such organisation is the Migrant Assistance Office, which provides a personal adviser to help you find a job, as well as free Spanish language and skills courses.
  • Another organisation, the Migrant Integration Fund, provides job search assistance as well as training and vocational courses.

Funny court cases

As you know, life without humour would be boring. Even in legal cases, there are some amusing situations worth mentioning.

  • For example, in a court case in Spain, a woman filed for divorce because her husband constantly watched football games. The judge found this argument insufficient for a divorce, but still recommended that the husband reduce the amount of watching football games.
  • The man filed for divorce arguing that his wife was spending too much time on social media. The judge, however, concluded that this was not sufficient grounds for divorce and dismissed the suit.

There are also amusing animal-related lawsuits. For example, in one case, a dog was summoned to court to determine which of the former owners it belonged to.

  • A man sued his neighbour, claiming that his hen had flown over the fence and stolen an egg. The judge, however, dismissed the suit, stating that “chickens have the right to freedom of movement”.
