What is ‘Migrants in Greece’?


'Migrants in Greece' is an Online Observatory focusing on migrant and refugee issues.
Developed by the Lambrakis Research Foundation in cooperation with its partners from the Equal Project Forum for Social Cohesion, the observatory provides a wide selection of practical information and background documentation. We hope the website will be of interest not only to migrant communities and refugee groups, but also to anyone with an interest in immigration to Greece (NGOs, journalists, researchers, lawyers, students, local administrators, government employees etc).
In order to make the website’s content accessible to as many people as possible, we have developed both a Greek and an English-language version.

What is the 'Forum for Social Cohesion'?

 

The Equal Project Forum for Social Cohesion aims at combating racism and xenophobia while at the same time laying the ground for the balanced growth of a multicultural society in Greece. The project’s top priorities are:
(a) the integration of migrants and refugees into Greek society and the labour market,
(b) the sensitization to migrants’ problems of Greek employers, opinion-makers and the public at large
(c) the rejection of racist stereotypes.
