6 7 Labor orientation and career counselling is especially important for migrant young people, because they arrive to new countries where sometimes they don’t have a support network, which is especially important for getting a job in the Mediterranean countries. Through career guidance, young people can discover what are their passions, skills, competences and the best professional field for them; but there are young people not motivated with the traditional ways of job orientation. To avoid a lack of motivation and encourage autonomy in the active search of employment in the job market, different research pointed out that gamification is a good way to favor the career guidance and labor orientation. The UpGrad_Me 2.0 project aims to improve the employability of migrant youth, refugees, newcomers, and asylum seekers in the European Union, through the promotion of career guidance using video games and gamification methodologies. To achieve this goal, organizations from Malta (AMAM), Cyprus (CARDET), Italy (Arciragazzi Portici) and Spain (SSF) have joined forces to carry out this new challenger. Let’s discover something more about them! 1. The project
