Immigration Society 2010.
Annual Report 2010 with Integration Barometer.
May 2010
The Annual Report analyses and evaluates the progress of integration in Germany. It found that day-to-day integration is largely successful and that there is strong sense of mutual trust in German society. Integration is accepted as a pressing sociopolitical issue in the political realm. The Expert Council, however, also identified problem areas and a need for reform, for example, in the area of education. The results of the first Integration Barometer, which was developed by the SVR, are presented in this Annual Report. It captures public opinion on integration issues.
