More than welcome. Intercultural Integration of Migrants in and through Higher Education
Abstract
As global migration reaches historic levels, More Than Welcome: Intercultural Integration of Migrants in and through Higher Education, developed by UNESCO, calls for a shift from outdated integration models toward intercultural integration — a multidirectional process where migrants and host communities learn, adapt, and grow together. Highlighting the unique role of Higher Education Institutions, this publication shows how universities can serve as catalysts for inclusion by fostering intercultural competence, addressing discrimination, and creating spaces of belonging. Blending research with practical guidance, More Than Welcome offers policy-makers and educators a clear framework to build inclusive, resilient societies where diversity drives innovation, understanding, and shared progress.
