Migration

Integration Hub

We promote integration hubs as local places for exchange and collaboration between newcomers and people who are already resident. The space is used for encounters, advice and the development of new ideas for the neighborhood.

About the project

The Integration Hub concept aims to systemically facilitate faster and more holistic integration of refugees and migrants. Currently, many structural challenges hinder their integration, making it exceedingly difficult and longsome for refugees to obtain jobs, acquire sufficient communication skills, or to regain a social network that enables full participation in society.

The Hub facilitates the integration process by creating community-spaces in diverse neighborhoods that assist refugees, migrants, as well as locals, to support social, cultural, and economic togetherness and prosperity through incubation of local initiatives. These initiatives could be community events as well as cultural activities or even local business ideas.
