Category: Migration statistics

From a refugee perspective, integration requires a preparedness to adapt to the lifestyle of the host society without having to lose one's own cultural identity. 

From the point of view of the host society, it requires a willingness for communities to be welcoming and responsive to refugees and for public institutions to meet the needs of a diverse population. http://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/product?code=KS-GQ-18-004&mode=view
