Grantová výzva pro evropská města: integrace cizinců
Iniciativa Evropské komise Urban Initiative Action (UIA), zaměřená na hledání a podporu neotřelých řešení problémů měst, vypisuje první grantovou výzvu v objemu 80 milionů EUR. Vedení evropských měst, která mají více než 50 000 obyvatel, mohou žádat mimo jiné o prostředky na podporu aktivit zaměřených na integraci imigrantů včetně souvisejících investic do sociální, zdravotnické či vzdělávací infrastruktury. Podpořeny budou nejméně tříleté projekty, a to až do výše 5 milionů EUR. Termín pro podání grantových žádostí je 31.3.2016.

Evropské integrační indikátory: nová data o chudobě a sociálním vyloučení
Eurostat v lednu 2016 aktualizoval migrační a integrační statistiky (tzv. zaragozské indikátory) zaměřené na ohrožení chudobou a sociálním vyloučením. Jedním z hlavních cílů Strategie Evropa 2020 v boji s chudobou je pomoci minimálně 20 milionům lidí vymanit se z bídy. Právě lidé narození mimo EU jsou jednou ze skupin, které jsou těmito jevy nejvíce ohroženi.
