The
ministers also agreed to manage economic migration with
a view to promoting economic and social progress in receiving,
transit and origin countries; to enhance social cohesion
by improving the integration of migrants and persons of
immigrant background and the re-integration of migrants
who return to their countries of origin; and to strengthen
the contribution of migrants and persons of immigrant
background to development in receiving and origin countries
and their involvement in co-development programmes. This
report was prepared to support the ministerial debate
during the conference. It presents the main aspects and
characteristics of migration in the member states of the
Council of Europe, analyses policy challenges raised by
contemporary migration and identifies an integrated policy
agenda.
