This report summarizes a meeting of national managers of experimental projects designed to encourage the socio-cultural and linguistic integration or reintegration of children of migrant workers and former migrant workers. The report describes the procedures of the meeting and presents experimental projects undertaken in three host countries (Belgium, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands) and in three countries of origin (Greece, Portugal, and Yugoslavia). It also briefly summarizes participants' reports on activities and experiences in their respective countries and organizations. Projects and reports focus on the renewal of teaching methods, the production of innovative teaching materials, the training of teachers responsible for multicultural classes, and improvement of relationships among schools, parents, and cultural associations.
