MPG recently undertook a pilot project funded by the European Programme on Integration and Migration (EPIM) to assess the extent to which migrants’ voices are successfully heard at all levels of interaction with political parties (constituents, voters, activists, employees, and political candidates). A major output will be the development of benchmarks to help parties “practice what they preach” by mainstreaming diversity practices into party processes across the political spectrum
The project produced a ‘toolkit’ for mainstreaming diversity in political partiesincluding:
- The results of the comparative analysis
- Concrete proposals on effective multi-level diversity mainstreaming
- Examples of good practice
- Benchmarks and indicators for evaluating strategies.
