International Dialogue on Migration No. 11

Migrants and the Host Society: Partnerships for Success

Format *
As part of IOM’s International Dialogue on Migration, a two-day workshop on the theme of “Migrants and the Host Society: Partnerships for Success” was held in Geneva, Switzerland on 12 and 13 July 2006. Approximately 175 participants and panellists from over 60 countries and various backgrounds (IOs, NGOs, academics and the private sector) came together to share ideas and discuss flexible approaches to integration that stay abreast of the increasingly complex migration patterns. This publication provides an account of some of the main issues discussed during the workshop, including the meaning of ‘integration’ in today’s mobile world, its multidimensional nature, as well as policy options for managing integration with a view to ensuring the social cohesion of the host and home communities. In addition, it emphasizes the roles and responsibilities of different stakeholders as well as the need for close cooperation and the opportunities for partnerships between and among them.
