The integration partnership programme of the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment supports the effectiveness of the work promoting integration and social inclusion by bringing together operators and increasing multi-professional and diverse cooperation.

The partnership programme brings together operators and increases cooperation

The operations of the partnership programme are based on open dialogue which challenges existing ways of thinking, produces up-to-date information, shares successful practices and further develops the operations. The partnership programme creates shared forums which enable open discussions and combines the latest knowledge with the practical know-how of professionals.

Partnership programme supports those involved in integration, but immigrants’ participation opportunities must be improved
4.9.2023 | News item
Partnership barometer is a survey that collects information on the current state and development needs of work that promotes integration and receptiveness of society, as well as the activities of the Partnership programme. Based on the survey, which was conducted for the second time, the majority of respondents felt that the Partnership programme was useful for their work and considered the opportunities for cooperation promoting integration relatively good. One key development need highlighted in the barometer was the need for structural changes that would improve the inclusion and participation of immigrants in cooperation promoting integration.

The development of the partnership programme continues

In the future, a two-year action plan will outline the operations of the partnership programme. The content of the action plan for 2021–2022 has been designed together with the integration operators. You can read the draft action plan and give feedback on it.
