- METOIKOS: Circular migration patterns in Southern and Central Eastern Europe: Challenges and opportunities for migrants and policy makers
- Summary
- The METOIKOS project looks at circular migration patterns in three European regions: southeastern Europe and the Balkans (Greece, Italy and Albania); southwestern Europe and the Maghreb (Spain, Italy and Morocco); and Central Eastern Europe (Poland, Hungary, and Ukraine).More specifically, METOIKOS studies the links between different types of circular migration and processes of integration (in the country of destination) and reintegration (in the source country). It identifies the main challenges and opportunities involved in circular migration for migrants (and their families), source countries and destination countries and develops new conceptual instruments for the analysis of circular migration and integration.
