This week we will be part of the CDCDI international conference entitled \u201cRethinking EU Immigration: legal developments, management and practices<\/strong>\u201d promoted by the Research and Information Centre on Immigrant Integration (Centru de Documentare \u0219i Cercetare \u00een Domeniul Integr\u0103rii Imigran\u021bilor<\/a>, CDCDI) and organised by the Romanian Association for Health Promotion (Asocia\u0163ia Rom\u00e2n\u0103 pentru Promovarea S\u0103n\u0103t\u0103\u0163ii<\/a>, ARPS) in partnership with the SOROS Foundation Romania<\/a> that will take place on March 13-14, 2014 in Bucharest, Romania.<\/p>\n

Is immigrant integration <\/strong>a key challenge for the EU states? How should governments address the European trends in Migration? These are among the most relevant issues to be dealt from scholars, practitioners and NGOs representatives during the event.<\/p>\n

Immigration and integration are, indeed, of high interest for political actors, academics, researchers and policy makers. With increasing migration to and within an already diverse European Union, the need for understanding and explaining the immigration process<\/strong> is urgent in order to identify the most appropriate integration frameworks. Viewed both as a challenge and as an opportunity, immigration cannot be efficiently managed without coherent integration measures.<\/p>\n

The economic crisis and the focus on the nation-state from the last 5 years pushed the governments to make adjustments to their immigration policies that answered to the \u201cparty induced public pressure\u201d. The European legal framework in the area of migration and asylum has undergone some important changes during 2013. To what extend are those changes likely to improve the life prospect of both immigrants and local population in the member states? What are the risks related to the transposition of the recast Asylum Procedures Directive<\/strong> at the national level, taking into account the protracted conflict in Syria? The conference aims to explore the political, economic, legal and social implications of immigration in the EU, as well as the development potential of migration for the member states and the region as a whole.<\/p>\n

The conference programme<\/a> includes around thirty speakers from several other NGOs and civil society organisation as well as universities and institutions, such as the Migration Policy Group<\/a>, the University of Leiden<\/a>, the International Centre for Migration Policy Development<\/a> (ICMPD), the University of Amsterdam<\/a>, the University of Essex<\/a>, the Centre of Migration Research of Warsaw<\/a>, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees<\/a> (UNHCR), the Migrants\u2019 Rights Network<\/a>, and the University of Geneva<\/a>, to discuss around the following themes:<\/p>\n
