AMITIE: A new communication campaign on migration, development and human rightsMigration,
development, human rights: ideas free to move. But what does unite the destiny of a migrant with the hopes for development of his/her country? And what does connect the future of our
community to its way towards integration? During its first year of activity, AMITIE has tried to line up these ideas, together with operators and citizens born here or elsewhere, the result is the AMITIE campaign. WHAT Migration is an economic, social and cultural resource. Cultural diversity and pluralism are a source of wealth. AMITIE is a new – real, genuine and
active- communication, addressed to citizens, local authorities, NGOs, private
corporations and companies, to raise awareness, facilitate public communication
in cultural diversity, to direct policy-makers towards actual integration
policies and to create opportunities to strengthen and create new partnerships

awareness, to create places where to meet up and talk about migration,
development and human rights, in order to promote a new integration, respecting
our new plural European society rights. AMITIE campaign wants to communicate
in an innovative way the interconnection among migration, development and human
rights, to raise awareness and knowledge, increase the value of migration as a
resource (economic, social, cultural), recognize the cultural diversity and
