The main objective of the proposed four year project (January 2013 - December 2016) "Learning spaces for inclusion and social justice: Success stories from immigrant students and school communities in four Nordic countries" is to draw lessons from success stories of individual immigrant students and whole school communities at different levels that have succeeded in developing learning contexts that are equitable and socially just. In the project, students´ success is defined as social as well as academic success.
The aim of the project is to deepen understanding of the institutionalized fostering of values in Nordic preschools at the theoretical, methodological, and empirical levels.
