The Center for International Migration and Integration (CIMI) facilitates the sharing of good practices in migration and integration between Israel and the international community, drawing upon the extensive experience Israel has accumulated in immigrant integration and diaspora-homeland partnerships.
In 2008, CIMI entered into a strategic partnership with the Ministry of Immigrant Absorption and Ministry of Justice, thereby expanding the programmatic agenda in the area of immigrant integration and inter-cultural communication and dialogue.
In 2009, CIMI will undertake a significant new initiative "Migration Management Capacity Building in Israel: Supporting Effective Mechanisms to Combat Trafficking for Forced Labor and Protect Refugees" in partnership with UNHCR and IOM and supported by the EU. The program will focus on capacity-building of officials working with migrant populations, enhancing inter-cultural understanding.
