Migration Conference 2019
The City Council of Zurich defines its integration policy objectives for each legislature. Their implementation takes place mainly within the framework of so-called regulatory structures or through specific support measures. This division and localization is now provided for by law.
However, history and everyday life show that integration also succeeds in other ways. Often enough, especially where it is not captured and promoted by customer-oriented services or by programs, agendas or measures.
These "third places" of integration are the focus of the Zurich Migration Conference 2019.
