Projects
Upcoming within Integration Norden
Integration Norden is managed by the Nordic Welfare Centre and is part of the Nordic Council of Ministers’ thematic initiative on the integration of immigrants and refugees.
Integration Norden functions as a knowledge bank and a Nordic hub for development and exchange of experiences in the field of integration. We address integration related to various aspects of societal life: the labor market, housing, social initiatives, and demographics. We present comparisons between countries, research on the effects of migration, and learning examples. Additionally, we gather the latest news in Nordic and international migration policy and provide tips on current seminars.
Below, you can familiarize yourself with our ongoing projects.
