The project “New forms of European citizenship in an era of migration” brings together 17 civil society organizations from 16 countries in Europe. The project focuses on the growing flows of migration to and from the old continent and aims to study how the phenomenon of migration affects European civil society in an environment of new forms of social engagement and active citizenship. The project is funded by Europe for Citizens of the European Union program.
The project “New Forms of European Citizenship in the Age of Migration” consists of three main parts: an international survey of partner countries, examining perceptions of migrants and the phenomenon of migration; studying local and international activities on the ground, disseminating the results and promoting independent or integrated civic action to facilitate the integration of migrants into European society.
