About

An interactive dashboard to measure the integration of migrant children.

Project Outcomes

  • Dashboard of 30 socio-educational integration indicators to compare the integration of migrant children across countries, monitor its evolution, and identify areas of future intervention.
  • The dashboard is based on information collected from more than 24,000 children and 406 sites in formal and non-formal educational environments in the six participant countries.
  • The data collected shows that most countries excel in providing access to compulsory education and healthcare for migrant children. However, there remain gaps in mental health services and access to citizenship.
