Migration-sensitive counseling means showing immigrants action-oriented ways into the Saxony-Anhalt labor market. Full-time employees who advise immigrants on the process of labor market integration need appropriate migration-sensitive counseling skills.  

Breaking down language barriers is one of the cornerstones of this process. The use of plain language in particular enables you to break down barriers in communication and respond to needs in a language-sensitive manner during counseling. The Plain Language Network provides comprehensive information to support you in its use. In addition to background information on plain language, rules, and text review services, you will also find various publications in plain language here.

Language mediators can help facilitate communication between people with very different language skills. The project "SiSA – Sprachmittlung in Sachsen-Anhalt" (Language Mediation in Saxony-Anhalt) run by the State Network of Migrant Organizations in Saxony-Anhalt (LAMSA) provides volunteer language mediators who support migrants in situations such as counseling sessions or appointments with authorities. 

In our information center, we offer you in-depth information on strategies for language-sensitive counseling and other interesting topics.
