In 2015 over 1,000,000 people from the Near and Middle East reached Europe. As EU member states attempt to limit refugees’ access to their territory the question arises as to how to deal with those who are already on the continent and who have the right to international protection. The panel discussion will consider the means and purposes of integration.
What does integration mean and how does it differ from so-called assimilation? What experiences do we have of integrating such a large number of people? Is there an inverse relationship between the success of integration and the crime rate in society? And how does the integration of foreigners in the CR work?
Evening held in cooperation with the Studentské hnutí za solidaritu (Student Movement for Solidarity).
