We shape diversity and participation - the specialist service for migration and integration of the AWO
We advise refugees and immigrants of all ages, organise civic engagement, accompany intercultural openness processes, and design anti-racism and anti-discrimination work.
The AWO helps to make integration and inclusion effective. Our specialist service for migration and integration works for the recognition of the rights of immigrants in society. For the AWO, shaping the immigration society is one of the most important tasks resulting from the AWO's guiding principles.
