Summary

Informing debates and enhancing co-operation: Migration Policy Group Activities Report 2006

Description

MPG works and lives to set and achieve the high standards of equality and mobility implied by its vision: open and inclusive societies in which all members - those with and without an immigrant background - have equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities and a commitment to contribute to the economic, social, cultural and civic life of our diverse societies.

Strategic thinking on equality and mobility over the past decade has shown some results and MPG has made a mark on the evolving policy landscape. This underlies MPG’s work and inspires the title of this report: Setting and achieving high equality standards.

This report summarises MPG’s activities and outputs in 2006. The three programme areas are covered in turn: migration and integration, anti-discrimination and equality, and diversity. The report also outlines MPG’s information, dissemination and networking activities. The penultimate section focuses on the organisation itself – board members, staff, partnerships and financial resources. A list of publications brings up the rear. For quick reference, the timeline overleaf maps key initiatives and projects since MPG began in 1995.
