We are ready to launch the Dataset of World Refugee and Asylum Policies with data from 193 countries. Join our speakers and discover how to use the dataset for policy and research purposes.
The event is online on January 16, 4pm Geneva / 10am DC. @ImmigrationLab@jointdatacenter
For decades, #AsylumPolicy research has disproportionately focused on high-income regions. Now, the @jointdatacenter is launching a tool that will help close this gap. Join us Jan 16, 4pm Geneva/10am Washington DC/7am LA for the DWRAP launch.

Globally, #ForcedDisplacement is at an all-time high. How can governments hosting #refugees help them integrate more effectively? A new IPL study reveals lessons from Germany’s #integration efforts during the height of refugee arrivals in 2015-16: https://t.co/f9SfKW7ywm 🧵(1/6)
For policymakers preparing for future refugee arrivals, this research highlights the need to balance urgency, capacity, & effectiveness in integration programming. Scaling existing, proven programs may be more effective than building large-scale initiatives from scratch. (5/6)
📣 Neue Studie vom DeZIM, @ImmigrationLab & @iab_news zeigt: #Integrationskurse bringen Geflüchtete schneller in Jobs. Weniger intensive Angebote hatten keine vergleichbare Wirkung. Darum warnen die Forscher vor Etat-Kürzungen für Integrationskurse.
