Question and objectives of the project

The war in Ukraine has led to the largest movement of refugees within Europe since the Second World War. More than one million Ukrainian refugees were registered in Germany by June 2023. Their return plans are important both for Ukraine, which needs workers of all skills to rebuild the country after the war, and for the host countries. The project examines the economic and social integration of Ukrainian refugees in Germany, how integration is influenced by return expectations and integration policies, and how return migration can build bridges between the German and Ukrainian economies. It also examines which factors play a role in the choice of destination country. As part of the project, a large-scale panel of Ukrainian refugees in Germany will be created to collect information on integration and return migration expectations and link these to investments in German skills and education.

Methodical approach

Own panel survey of Ukrainian refugees in Germany, comprising approx. 4-5 survey waves.
