MPG's top 10 most-read publications of 2023

As we bid farewell to 2023, let's rewind. Below, you can find MPG's top 10 most-read publications of 2023. This year, we also launched a podcast on the political participation of New Europeans called Changing the Table. On this podcast, we go beyond the idea of empowering people to take a seat at the table and we look into changing the table itself to make it more inclusive.

New Report: Meaningful Participation of New Europeans in Policymaking

In a vibrant democracy, everyone can take part in political and social life, regardless of cultural backgrounds. However, New Europeans face many barriers that hinder their ability to have a say in the decisions that affect them daily. Based on analysis of interviews conducted with new European leaders from across the EU, this report by MPG's Managing Editor, Olivia Long, illustrates key obstacles to the civic and political participation of new Europeans. It presents policy recommendations and options for closing the participation gap, aiming to promote the meaningful, comprehensive participation of migrant stakeholders in policy making.
 
 
European Network of Legal Experts on Gender Equality and Non-discrimination holds annual legal seminar.

On Friday the 1st of December, the European Network of Legal Experts on Gender Equality and Non-discrimination held its annual legal seminar. MPG’s Director, Isabelle Chopin opened the seminar. She was also joined by Irena Moozova, Deputy Director-General for the International Dimension of Justice Policies, Rule of Law and Equality and acting Director for Equality and Non-Discrimination, Nani Jansen Reventlow, an internationally recognized human rights lawyer and founder of Systemic Justice and the Digital Freedom Fund, and EU Commissioner for Equality, Helena Dalli.
 
 
Changing the Table podcast - Episode 3

In this episode, we look into how the political participation of migrants varies across different European countries, with a special focus on Ireland as a unique case study. How does Ireland’s approach to political participation differ, and what lessons can be learned from its successes and shortcomings?

Seden is joined by Dr Salome Mbugua, CEO of AkidwA, an organisation of migrant women in Ireland, and by Dr Basak Yavcan, Head of Research of the Migration Policy Group. Who is working on a comparative index of national policies that encourage the civic and political participation of migrants.
