The Magdas Hotel: From Refugees to Working in a Multicultural Setting  

The Magdas Hotel is a case study of a social enterprise with two aims. Firstly, it is a reflection on what are the most suitable resources for funding a newly launched project. Secondly, it addresses the topic of the social and professional integration of people at risk of exclusion, as it is the case of immigrants. The case study looks at the management of human resources in multicultural working environments.

The case study could be used on training programmes related with enterprise and setting up businesses, especially in a social context. It is also suitable for business administration and management courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
