Big Ideas Webinar: New York City’s Blueprints for Immigrant Integration Success (Cities of Migration)
This FREE webinar is part of a series of Welcoming Cities and Counties webinars co-hosted by Welcoming America.
For the City of New York, serving immigrants is about smart policy-making, innovative responses to community needs, and cross-agency programming that better support immigrant New Yorkers. Its Blueprints for Immigrant Integration are designed to help other local governments “eliminate the mystery” of serving immigrant residents by providing step-by-step guidance on effective local policies and practices that help immigrants succeed.
Join Fatima Shama, former Commissioner, New York City Mayor’s Office of Immigrant Affairs, for a conversation about why cities around the world are taking the lead on immigrant integration and how New York’s “Blueprints” for immigrant integration success can help. In conversation with Astrid Ziebarth, Director of the Immigration and Integration Program at the German Marshall Fund in Berlin.
