The Swiss Forum for Migration and Population Studies (SFM) of the University of Neuchâtel will hold the presentation of the latest MIPEX indicators.
The Migrant Integration Policy Index (MIPEX) measures integration policies in almost all OECD countries, including Switzerland. Using more than 150 policy indicators, MIPEX creates a rich, multi-dimensional picture of migrants’ opportunities to participate in society. By measuring policies and their implementation it reveals whether all residents are guaranteed equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities.
