European Refugee/Integration Policy

Two new policy papers focusing on refugee/migration issues in Europe were released recently. The first from the European Council on Refugees and Exiles (ECRE) is entitled "Europe's role in the global refugee protection system. The Way Forward: an Agenda for Change," and was presented at the European Parliament on 26 April 2006.

The European Policy Centre (EPC) examines integration practices and policies in "One size fits all? Tailored integration policies for migrants in the European Union" (27 April 2006).

The Migration Policy Institute (MPI) also addresses European integration issues in several chapters of its latest book, Europe and Its Immigrants in the 21st Century: A New Deal or a Continuing Dialogue of the Deaf? (March 2006) [description].

Here are a few resources to help monitor migration news and policy developments in Europe:
- Migration News (free monthly news overview; includes European coverage)
- Migration News Sheet (monthly bulletin on immigrants, refugees and ethnic minorities in Europe; requires subscription)
- Migration und Bevölkerung (free, mostly monthly newsletter; in German)

Posted in Publications.
