Summary: | The aim of this paper is to contribute to the debate on integration of Muslim immigrants into the European societies. Censuses1 indicate a continuous growth of Muslims in member states of the European Union (EU) since the 1960s.2 In some of the member states of the EU, Muslims make up more than five percent of the population, and this number is expected to grow in the coming decades, depending mostly on how much immigration into the EU will be allowed. Since 2011 the EU has been facing the biggest influx of migrants in its history. Reasonably, accepting and integrating such a large number of people in its societies became a great challenge for many EU member states. It has become clear that the integration programmes within the EU member states are outdated and that new migration policies, as well as practices will have to be adopted and developed. |
