The Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab Europe (J-PAL Europe) recently launched the European Social Inclusion Initiative (ESII). This multi-year research and policy outreach initiative aims to generate new evidence and to share lessons for policies and programmes that support the social inclusion of migrants and refugees in Europe.
The new initiative will increase efforts to improve the integration of migrants and will showcase the potential benefits of migrant integration in EU cities, towns and rural areas, as well as the political, social and economic costs of failed integration.
Upon arrival, migrants are often younger than the host country average and generally healthier than native-born populations. This so-called ‘healthy immigrant effect’ however deteriorates with the time of residence. Once the age factor adjusted, studies find a disproportionate share of migrants among the population groups with low health outcomes. This is explained by the fact that people with a migrant background are disproportionately exposed to risk factors.
