Are you the Nordic Region’s new integration expert?

As a member of the Nordic Migrant Expert Forum, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Improve the integration of refugees and immigrants: Share your unique knowledge and experience to help create a more inclusive Nordic Region.
  • Network with experts: Build relationships with other experts and stakeholders in the field of integration.
  • Develop your expertise: Attend interesting meetings and workshops and learn all about the latest research and practices.

The point of drawing up a Nordic definition of integration is to create dynamic societies where everybody can participate and contribute. It should be based on inclusion, participation and respect for diversity.
