TRAINING OF EDUCATORS FOR THE SOCIAL INCLUSION AND TRAINING OF UNACCOMPANIED FOREIGN MINORS IN SPAIN

Abstract

The article begins with an introduction to the Spanish context, focusing on migration, diversity, and the specific profile and needs of immigrant minors arriving alone in Spain, which raises the new professional roles of social educators working in intercultural diversity contexts. The second section of the article deals with educators' training of immigrant minors and young people, a relatively neglected and under-served field. Sections three and four are dedicated to present two training experiences we have carried out, on a four-month online course for under-age educators and a short-term face-to-face course on the same topic
