The conference presents results of the Joint Research Centre (JRC)
Exploratory Research Activity (ERA) “International migrants in functional urban areas.
How strategies of sustainable urban development can foster the integration of
migrants?”.
The study explores the dynamics of the relationship between migrant
integration and local territories. The hypothesis of the study was that
place-based policy aimed at a balanced development of the territory can promote
migrants’ integration indirectly.
The objective of the study was to understand if strategies of urban
development supported by the EU Cohesion Policy and focusing on functional urban
areas address, explicitly or implicitly, migrants and can foster migrant
integration.
The study applied a pan- European Union perspective with in-depth
analyses of case studies from Athens, Liège, Malmö, Paris and Venice.
