This project aims to describe and understand the fundamentals of integration of youth, and its variation across five countries (Norway, Sweden, England, Germany and the Netherlands). We use the large-scale CILS4EU/CILS-NOR data on young people of immigrant and majority origins.
This program emphasizes the multidimensional character of inequality. We integrate the analysis of several central welfare dimensions and study how they cross-cut each other and co-evolve. Our approach is dynamic, following the development of e.g., economic resources, education, health and well-being across individual lives and generations.
Segregation typically refers to the clustering of certain groups in residential areas, schools, or workplaces. But segregation is intimately related to how people interact with one another. This project thus considers segregation from the angle: access to urban amenities that promote social interactions, and their effect on integration.
