Arrival Cities in Europe: An integrative development strategy beyond accessibility.
Germany, Europe

The processes and dynamics of migration and migrant integration in Europe have increased in complexity over the last decades. This complexity and the attitude of governments towards migration have enhanced cultural, economic and spatial conflicts between the migrants and the receiving society. One of the spatial phenomena that migration  causes is called ‘arrival cities’. This project explores to which extend this phenomenon is part of the problem and can become part of the solution for more integrative neighbourhoods with higher social mobility. By taking Germany as a case, the project designs a desirable concept and strategy as an approach to the processes involved in arrival cities.
