Transnational mobility and migrant integration

Today in the EU, there are more than 30 million third-country nationals. These non-naturalized foreigners often find themselves on the move, having families and socio-economic relations and engaging in economic and political activities in more than one country. It is a challenging task for experts and policy-makers to understand the dynamic and complex relationship between integration and transnational mobility and to initiate changes in migration-, (re)integration- and diaspora policies. We may ask therefore: 

• What drives migrants to be transnationally engaged and mobile?
• Which dimensions of integration matter most for migrants to engage in transnational mobility?
• Which factors may encourage or hinder transnational mobility?
