We're pleased to start 2024 with several insightful new publications that underscore MPG's commitment to evidence-based migration, integration and anti-discrimination policies.
In this newsletter, you will find 26 non-discrimination country reports from the European Network of Legal Experts in Gender Equality and Non-discrimination, giving you the latest updates on the transposition and implementation of both the Racial Equality and Employment Equality Directives on the national level.
Next we have a Joint Position Paper authored by the EU Consultative Group of Young Migrants. This unique collaborative effort reflects the diverse perspectives of young migrants and contains concrete policy recommendations on the New Pact on Migration and Asylum, access to education, vocational training, recognition of qualifications, promotion of cultural diversity & belonging, and political participation.
In anticipation of the upcoming 2024 elections, we are excited to unveil a comprehensive "Get Out the Vote" campaign toolkit, tailored to boost the turn-out of mobile voters.
Warm regards Isabelle Chopin, Director of MPG
