Research

Research on migration and integration including population profiling; surveys of needs and opinions; analysis of official data; mapping institutions and services; assessment of value for money; and policy review.

Community engagement and development

Support for community engagement and development so communities can themselves play a part in integration initiatives.

Developing strategies

Support to public authorities in designing and implementing area-based strategies for integration, in particular for cities or regions. These bring together key agencies to work in a coordinated way towards long-term integration goals, agreed with communities.

Evaluation

Evaluation of agencies’ own projects and programmes on migration and integration, to help them identify how best to use available resources, again seeking community views so far as possible.

Training

Training for community members to help transfer skills, and for practitioners to help them understand better the policy environment of integration work.
