MIKS Ressurssenter works to advance inclusion, participation and opportunity in education, employment and society.
We create practical learning environments for building skills, networks and confidence.
For us, inclusion means giving more people a genuine opportunity to participate in work, communities and society. This requires safe environments, meaningful encounters between people and guidance towards the next important step.
Diversity is the sum of different experiences, languages, perspectives and ideas. When these differences have room to contribute, we believe learning, collaboration and development all become richer.
Knowledge is key to understanding systems, making informed choices and drawing on your own resources. We work to make knowledge and skills accessible to everyone.
STEP is MIKS Ressurssenter's initiative for young people, primarily those aged 16 to 24 who want to explore a safer way forward towards education, work or other meaningful activity.
In STEP, you can gain work-related experience through practical tasks, develop your own ideas creatively and systematically, or improve your understanding of digital tools in a safe setting together with MIKS.
KIME is an employment-focused entrepreneurship programme for people with multicultural backgrounds. Participants work practically with their own skills, idea development, business understanding and networks, both with a view to starting a business and participating in working life in Norway.
Our work is based on a strengths-based approach. We meet people through their experiences, interests, skills and ambitions. We focus on what each person already brings, what they want to develop and the opportunities that can be created from there.
Practical experience, active participation and strong relationships are central to how we work. We create environments where people can test ideas, solve concrete tasks, collaborate with others, and build skills and networks. Guidance is shaped around each person's goals, needs and circumstances.
As a social enterprise, MIKS develops programmes in dialogue with people, professional communities and the society around us. Our aim is to create genuine opportunities for achievement, participation and new routes towards education, employment or entrepreneurship.
