In the aftermath of the media's spotlight shifting away, the network of institutions, public bodies, and private social sectors in the area remains committed to promoting and facilitating the exercise of citizenship rights and duties for refugees from Afghanistan. The Lazio Region is actively supporting the integration of Afghan migrants through five projects financed by the Public Notice “Creation of Interventions and Networks for the Social Inclusion of Afghan Migrants in the Territory of the Lazio Region."
Evaluating the progress of such initiatives two years after the arrival of Afghan migrants is a valuable step to assess the progress made, address critical issues, and identify measures to enhance their life prospects and relationships within the local, national, and European context.
