Mothers' café
The involvement of parents with migrant background in school life can be done through provision of language or other courses.
In Nordrhein Westfahlen in Germany it is frequent to organise international, intercultural associations of mothers of different nationalities, often in combination with teaching of German. For example, in the town of Hilden, mothers meet once a week in the premises of the elementary school, where childcare and professional facilitation is provided, allowing mothers of different origin to exchange experiences, improve German language skills, hear tips on parenting etc.
