Integrating immigrants: how can European countries do better?

Part of the UCL Policy & Practice seminar series. Recorded 21st March 2024 In this Policy and Practice event we will delve into the multifaceted issues surrounding the integration of immigrants in European countries. We will consider the cultural, social and economic barriers faced by immigrants, and the political pressures that sustain and, in some cases, strengthen these barriers. Participants from academia, civil society and party politics will explore effective policies to foster immigrant integration and consider how policies and strategies may need to evolve to address emerging challenges.

Marley Morris is Associate Director, Migration, Trade and Communities, at the Institute for Public Policy Research. Christabel Cooper is Director of Research at Labour Together.
