What is Trapezistak?
Trapezistak is a one-stop-shop integral model to promote successful transitions to adulthood of (migrant) youth in social disadvantage and without family references:
- Framed in the Basque youth and migration policies, focused on rights and inclusion, is co-designed and developed from an inter-institutional perspective and in cooperation with the Social Third Sector in Basque Country.
- Designed from the experience of the last pandemic for the experimentation of innovative, person-centered and multi-dimensional solutions, is inspired also by successful European practices adapted to our context.
- Specifically designed and strongly oriented to generate measurable impact (with an integrated monitoring and evolutive evaluation scheme) for subsequent replication and scaling up.
The fundamentals of Trapezistak are:
- Youth and migration policies as the ordinary framework.
- Emancipation right and rights (subjective or objective) linked to emancipation.
- Need of specific emancipation policies (to leave parents home and consolidate it).
- Emancipation and social inclusion as goals (enhancing autonomous living).
- Transition to adulthood as a longer process.
- Positive action inside a normalized emancipation network (gender, origin…)
- Emancipation as result of several factors (employment, housing, income + capacities for autonomous living, cultural framework…)
- Multidimensional (one-stop shop) and community approach (community model).
- Public leadership and cooperation between sectors.
- Focus on rights and duties.
- Universal Declaration on Human Rights, European Convention on Human Rights, and the European Pillar of Social Rights as references.
- Starting profiles and limits of the program.
- Regulated access to citizenship / youth interventions with people who is in Euskadi.
- Model of reception and social inclusion (vg: arrival resources oriented to agile integration with the participation of the community, and interculturality vs multiculturality or assimilation models).
The Keys factors of success of Trapezistak
1) A local network of more than 20 non-profit social third sector organizations from de Basque Country.
Agintzari participate in this local network and also coordinate the program. Each organization offers at least, neighborhood-based housing solutions and social-educational intervention and a personal reference to the young and the local community, enhance both capacities and opportunities. Some of them additionally offer training-labour intermediation services.
2) Measuring of the impact
Trapezistak measures its impact through two strategies:
- Integrated dual monitoring process:
quantitative indicators (milestones/scales)
qualitative (evolutive evaluation model; Aguirre Lehendakaria Center / AC4-Columbia University).
- Combines strategic (Coordinating Team), technical (intervention team) and individual (the Trapezistak themselves) assessment.
