The content of the National Plan

The preparation of the 1st edition of a comprehensive National Plan on the Integration of Migrants includes, among other things, the analysis of the current situation in Cyprus and the conduction of an in-depth research on the needs of migrants, in the form of interviews and focus groups. The drafting of the Plan considered the general EU accession framework, as well as the international conventions governing the protection of human rights of legally residing Third-Country Nationals in the EU Member States. The extensive document of more than 150 pages also analyses the policy framework in Cyprus in view of the new Programming Period 2021 – 27 and defines 8 axes of intervention for the funding of projects and programs in the future.

This is the most important part of the proposed National Plan on the Integration of Migrants, as it includes measures and actions in support of the integration of migrants in the hosting society. The direct stakeholders are: governmental services, local authorities, non-governmental organizations dealing with migration and integration issues, international organizations, the communities of Third Country Nationals themselves, i.e. beneficiaries of international protection, legal migrants and asylum seekers. To achieve the objectives of the National Plan, a monitoring mechanism will be set up under the Ministry of Interior and the Civil Registry and Migration Department, and the Advisory Board on Integration of Migrants.
