With immigration on the rise in many countries, European cities face similar challenges in terms of integrating the new arrivals. These challenges range from the mundane (finding funds to provide the necessary services) to the complex (achieving integration without loss of identity). To provide a forum for the exchange of experience in this field, Eurofound, the Council of Europe and the City of Stuttgart jointly set up the European Network of Cities for Local Integration Policies for Migrants (CLIP) in 2006. The network’s first published report, Housing and integration of migrants in Europe, outlines strategies for assisting migrants with access to good, affordable housing and presents a number of innovative policy approaches undertaken by the 20 cities involved in the first phase of the project. The next phase of the CLIP project, which will involve 25 cities, deals with the effects of spatial segregation and the implementation of local diversity policies.
