The proposed project will investigate migrant health needs and experienced barriers to healthcare access for Ukrainian Refugee Women (URW) residing in Norway, Sweden and Estonia.
This project focuses on street-level social work aimed at migrants in three Nordic countries, Finland, Norway and Sweden, and on how migrants make sense of and experience such social work in the context of transforming migration and welfare regimes in the Nordic region.
Young people predominantly live in cities, where the urgency of social exclusion is intertwined with numerous other societal challenges. Many of these pressing and interconnected problems, like unemployment, poverty, crime, and gender-based, ethnic, and religious discrimination, affect youth.
This collaborative project investigates the linguistic integration of Ukrainian refugees across four countries around the Nordic-Baltic region: Sweden, Norway, Estonia and Lithuania.
Sweden has good practices in integrating refugee students. This is partly due to a diverse school staff. This is one of the findings of a Nordic research project that has recently been presented along with a number of recommendations for better integration.
Project owners from Norway, Sweden, Estonia and Lithuania have submitted a total of 84 applications in the Nordic-Baltic call for proposals for research projects on migration and integration. The gender split in the project owners is roughly two-thirds women to one-third men.
Young people with immigrant backgrounds make active choices, are well-informed and have the power and strength to shape their own future despite strong social segregation and religious identity, say researchers.
What does it take for young migrants to succeed in Northern Europe? New research identifies responsibility, trust, and social relationships as crucial elements.
