The integration of foreigners on a local level can take on many different forms! The Integro project has proven to be a great example of this!
SIMI and its partners from Cyprus, Germany, Austria and the UK are looking for a unified methodology that could be applied as the most appropriate means for the successful incorporation of foreigners into local societies, for example via:
- political participation
- solidifying the rights of domestic helpers
- work with the media and the creation of media agencies
- efforts at applying migrants’ education in their jobs
- greater accessibility of local services to foreigners
Our common goal is to further develop specific local activities in an environment where real interaction between migrants and the receiving society occurs, with the help of which the politics of integration can be adjusted based on local conditions.
