The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) is comprised of 57 participating States that have differing experiences in dealing with migration flows, levels of government responsible for migrant integration policies, main countries of immigrant origin, and benefits and challenges associated with migration. Successful migrant integration is key to maximizing the strength, vitality and innovation that migrant populations bring to local communities, thus benefitting society at large. In reality, much of the migrant integration process occurs at the local level. Migrants meet and interact with others, use public services, work, open businesses and study in their new local communities.

It also provides policymakers with tools and guidance to ensure that education systems build the resilience of young people to anti-Semitic ideas and ideologies, violent extremism and all forms of intolerance and discrimination, through critical thinking and respect for others.
