<\/div>[vc_column_text]MPG part in the 9th meeting of the Committee of Experts on Intercultural Inclusion (ADI-INT), organised by the Council of Europe on 14-15 May 2026 in Strasbourg.

The tool aims to support users in assessing key aspects of multi-level governance for migrant integration in their own contexts and identifying areas for improvement in policy coordination, stakeholder engagement, and implementation across different levels of governance.<\/p>\n

The self-assessment framework is built around three key dimensions:<\/p>\n
