Migrantour - Sustainable Routes

Migrantour is a social project committed to build a positive narrative about migration, through walking tours led by migrant guides who share the history of  Mouraria neighborhood and their own migration stories. Lisbon is one of 25 European cities, integrated in the Migrantour network, where tours take place that are a sensory and human experience, promoting empathy and inclusion, and educating participants about the cultural diversity of one of Lisbon’s most multicultural neighborhoods.

It is being implemented in 10 countries – Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, France, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain – and 25 cities.

The walking routes – itinerant places of belonging and learning – encourage the involvement of the migrant population in the civic and cultural life of the cities they inhabit and promote their integration and autonomy. At the same time, they promote good sustainable tourism practices and zero-impact tourism opportunities.
