United Invitations connect migrants who want to improve their language skills with people who are fluent in the native language over a home-cooked dinner. The dinner is always free of charge, in someone’s home and takes place with no further obligations than to share one meal. It is a non-governmental, non-profit, politically and religiously independent initiative and participation is open and free for all. United Invitation's theory of change is that we can get around social exclusion and xenophobia by eating dinner together, by meeting as equals over food.
