Objective:

The objective of the topic is to facilitate the development and implementation of multi- stakeholder local integration strategies encompassing different aspects of the integration process. Consequently, proposals should aim at improving socio-economic inclusion and sense of belonging for migrants in local communities. Moreover, as the exchange of good practices and knowledge across the EU serves these particular objectives, proposals that include improving transnational cooperation between relevant stakeholders in the development and implementation of local integration strategies are encouraged.

Actions: Local integration strategies can be developed by local authorities in urban or suburban areas, small towns or rural areas.

The scope of the local integration strategies should be defined on the basis of and taking into account the local needs, context and administrative structure of communities.

Regarding their content, the local integration strategies do not need to cover all aspects relevant to a comprehensive integration policy; however, they should provide for a relevant local integration framework to tackle pertinent integration challenges, such as housing, integration in the labour market, exchanges between newcomers and the local population, sport and culture.

The proposals should include one or more of the following actions (non-exhaustive list)

  • Consultation activities for the design of the local integration strategy;
  • Trainings, workshops and mutual learning activities;
  • Technical assistance and peer review from members of the partnership for setting up and implementing a local integration strategy;
  • Transfer of knowledge activities between members of the partnership;
  • Awareness raising activities and events;
  • Creation of tools or platforms to facilitate the dissemination of know-how and best practices.

Outcomes:

Proposals should focus on contributing to the achievement of the following outcomes:

  • Established sustainable framework at local level for discussion on the development and the implementation of a local integration strategy;
  • Replicable good practices and a methodology for the development and implementation of a local integration strategy that can inspire other local actors across the EU;
  • Improved transnational cooperation between active stakeholders in local integration strategy;
  • Improved socio-economic inclusion and a sense of community at a local level for migrants involved in the project;
  • Increased exchange of experiences, information and best practices on integration at local level;
  • Concrete integration projects and measures implemented at a local level as a result of the exchange of information and experiences between partners of the project.

Total Budget: 7.500.000€
