Inclusive Integration Strategies: Towards a Shared Model

The Council of Europe’s report on Inclusive Integration Strategies highlights the importance of collaborative policymaking at the national and local levels to ensure the successful integration of migrants. The paper explores strategies employed by various European countries to facilitate the social, economic, and cultural inclusion of immigrants.

Key elements of successful integration strategies identified in the report include:

  • Multisectoral collaboration between governments, NGOs, and local communities to provide holistic integration support.
  • Access to housing, healthcare, and education as fundamental rights for migrants.
  • Labour market inclusion policies that recognise foreign qualifications and offer vocational training.
  • Anti-discrimination policies aimed at reducing barriers to full social participation.

The report provides case studies from different countries, showcasing how diverse approaches to integration can be tailored to national contexts while promoting cohesion and inclusion.
