Representatives from all Member States gathered for two days in Zaragoza from 15 to 16 April 2010 to discuss how migrant integration can become a driver for social cohesion in the EU. At this Ministerial Conference, the European Commission released the third edition of its 'Handbook on Integration for policy-makers and practitioners', focussing on the role of mass media in integration, the importance of awareness-raising and migrant empowerment, dialogue platforms, acquisition of nationality and practice of active citizenship, immigrant youth, education and the labour market. The 'Handbook' completes the set of measures foreseen by the 2005 Common Agenda for Integration, which also included the setting up of the National Contact Points on Integration, the European Web Site on Integration, the European Integration Forum and the European Fund for the Integration of Third-country Nationals. Commissioner Malmström has announced a new EU strategy on integration for the coming years. |
