Promoting Integration of Migrant Domestic Workers in Europe

The project aims at expanding the knowledge about the possible integration outcomes of admission and employment policies for MDW -who are usually low skilled- and enhance stakeholders' capacities to identify and remove barriers for their socioeconomic integration. The project will fit and build on the ILO activities in support of the upcoming discussion and probable adoption of a new ILO Convention on DW in June 2011. The project fits within the following specific objectives of the EC Integration Fund: • Improve knowledge of the impact of implementation of admission legislation on integration processes; • Improve knowledge of the links of different patterns of migration on integration of third country nationals; • Promote admission policies that favour integration of third-country nationals. • Address specific needs of young migrants and women • Improve the local services to adjust to different target groups, such as women, children and youngsters
