further the evidence-base on the role of preventive school-based interventions in promoting refugee and migrant adolescents&rsquo; mental well-being, and on how such interventions can be implemented in diverse educational contexts. We specifically look at interventions furthering social support and social cohesion, since these factors are known to be highly beneficial for newcomers&rsquo; well-being.<\/p>\n<p>Five interventions &ndash; school-mediation intervention, classroom drama therapy, social support groups in refugee classes, support networks on school level, and teachers&rsquo; training &ndash; will be implemented in six European countries. We will assess the interventions&rsquo; long-term impact on newcomers&rsquo; well-being (n=2500), particularly their impact on mental health problems, resilience, school attendance\/drop-out, and social support.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/h2><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"t2-accordion-item wp-block-t2-accordion-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"t2-accordion-title\">\n\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"t2-accordion-trigger\" id=\"subsidiary-objectives\" aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\tSubsidiary objectives\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-closed-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-add\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M12 19c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C11.097656 18.519531 11 18.285156 11 18v-5H6c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h5V6c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C11.480469 5.097656 11.714844 5 12 5c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C12.902344 5.480469 13 5.714844 13 6v5h5c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13h-5v5c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C12.519531 18.902344 12.285156 19 12 19Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-open-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-remove\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M6 13c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h12c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-accordion-item__inner-container is-layout-flow\" id=\"accordion-panel-1\" aria-labelledby=\"subsidiary-objectives\" role=\"region\" hidden>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/h2><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"t2-accordion-item wp-block-t2-accordion-item\" role=\"listitem\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"t2-accordion-title\">\n\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" class=\"t2-accordion-trigger\" id=\"method\" aria-controls=\"accordion-panel-2\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\tMethod\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-closed-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-add\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M12 19c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C11.097656 18.519531 11 18.285156 11 18v-5H6c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h5V6c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C11.480469 5.097656 11.714844 5 12 5c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C12.902344 5.480469 13 5.714844 13 6v5h5c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13h-5v5c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C12.519531 18.902344 12.285156 19 12 19Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"t2-accordion-icon is-open-icon\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-remove\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M6 13c-.285156 0-.519531-.097656-.710938-.289062C5.097656 12.519531 5 12.285156 5 12c0-.285156.097656-.519531.289062-.710938C5.480469 11.097656 5.714844 11 6 11h12c.285156 0 .519531.097656.710938.289062C18.902344 11.480469 19 11.714844 19 12c0 .285156-.097656.519531-.289062.710938C18.519531 12.902344 18.285156 13 18 13Zm0 0\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/button>\n\t\t\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-accordion-item__inner-container is-layout-flow\" id=\"accordion-panel-2\" aria-labelledby=\"method\" role=\"region\" hidden>\n\t\t\t\t\n\n\n<p>A mixed-methods longitudinal approach will combine questionnaires completed by adolescents, parents and teachers, focus groups with these groups, data on adolescents&rsquo; academic achievements, and an economic assessment of the societal costs and benefits&nbsp;related to the implementation.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, focus groups and national committees with other stakeholders will evaluate the impact of contextual factors (e.g., educational system) in order to design models to implement the effective interventions in other contexts.
