The cities
Eurocities Network partnered with MPG as an expert facilitator to help cities mentor and learn from each other. Together, they developed a toolkit on best practices for migrant integration. Based on MPG’s and the partners’ developed benchmarks, the toolkit was composed of two areas of our expertise: anti-discrimination strategies in the local job market, and access to public and private contracts for immigrant entrepreneurs.
Project Deliverables
- Visits to 16 EU cities that are coupled for a peer learning exercise (mentoring and mentored cities).
- Development of action plans for the mentored cities to bring about changes in the implementing cities.
- Four Integrating Cities Toolkits.
- Videos showcasing good practices.
- The Integrating Cities Conference VIII (Milan, November 2018).
