The INTEGRA project intervenes in the framework of the new Italian religious pluralism, consolidating virtuous integration processes that take the religious communities frequented by migrants as a privileged vector to promote policies supporting the coexistence of different cultures in a shared framework of rights and duties. In its main axes, the INTEGRA project focuses on three strategic targets: the ministers of worship and spiritual leaders (men and women) of the main religious communities that gather mainly immigrants; young "second generation" Muslims and religious communities considered in their complex and dynamic composition as social agents. Ministers of religion' and spiritual leaders often lack adequate legal, social and intercultural training, which is essential if they are to fulfil their role as community leaders and intercultural mediators. The young Muslims of the "second generation", due to their number and the peculiarity of Islamic traditions, are engaged in a complex effort to adapt to the new context and, with the strength of the training often had in Italy, will contribute to outline the theological, value and behavioural profile of the Islamic community in the coming decades. The religious communities as a whole, in their internal plurality, made up of different genders, ages, geographical origins, training and working paths, are, on the one hand, the ultimate recipients of each action, the ultimate reception basin of the INTEGRA project activities and, on the other hand, they themselves are subjects in search of the most suitable legal framework within which to carry out their different and multiform activities. There are three main objectives of the project: 1) To increase the knowledge and skills of religious leaders of the various religions with a higher migratory component in terms of constitutional principles, citizenship rights and duties, regulations on religious freedom, practice of intercultural and interreligious dialogue. 2) Orienting the need for sociality and dialogue of "second generation" young people outwards and, in particular, encouraging dialogue between young Muslims and institutional representatives (in this case, the Ministry of the Interior) on the issues of integration, civic activation, inter-generational, inter-religious and intercultural relations, and intercepting their needs and opinions. 3) Provide representatives of religions with a high migratory composition with useful advice on how to present themselves in the public arena, how to correctly frame the various activities through the types of regulations offered by the legal system and how to address, through dialogue procedures, any problems relating to the performance of their practices within the Italian socio-cultural legal framework, thus enabling them to develop and consolidate the necessary preconditions for full integration into Italian society and the Italian legal system. This action will make it possible to provide the public administrations concerned with updated interdisciplinary Policy Research Reports (PRRs) on the position of the religious groups involved on the most thorny issues from the administrative-normative point of view so as to offer an adequate knowledge base useful for the institutional activity of the PA, starting from the Department for Civil Liberties and Immigration and its Central Directorate for Cults. The activities will consist of a) Training Course for Ministers of Worship and Religious Leaders is addressed to men and women of different confessional affiliations, recommended by their Communities, Associations or Religious Bodies that have a significant presence of immigrants within them. The course consists of eight one-day lectures and will conclude with a public event organised in agreement with the Department for Civil Liberties and Immigration of the Ministry of the Interior. The lectures will be held at the premises of the various FIDR member universities; the final even
