We use refugee dispersal in Germany as a natural experiment to study the effect of area-level socioeconomic deprivation on mental and physical health, while considering the potential mediating role of neighbourhood characteristics. Refugees subject to dispersal (n = 1466) are selected ...

Integration setzt sich aus Teilprozessen, wie dem Erlernen der deutschen Sprache oder der Arbeitsmarkteinbindung, zusammen. In diesem Bericht betrachten wir diese Teilprozesse für Geflüchtete, die vor allem zwischen 1990 und 2010, nach Deutschland einreisten.
