Study on EU immigrants presented.

“Legally equal – practically disadvantaged?” Under this title, the IAW, together with the Research Institute for Vocational Education and Training (fbb) and the SOKO Institute, analyzed the situation of EU immigrants in Germany.

The study (in German) was commissioned by the Federal Government Commissioner for Migration, Refugees, and Integration. It examines the reasons for the migration and emigration of EU citizens, analyzes key obstacles in everyday and working life despite formal equality, and derives starting points for better participation and fair working conditions.

The results of the study were presented on March 3, 2026, in the presence of Minister of State Natalie Pawlik at the EU Commission's representation in Berlin.
