Scientific monitoring of the programme "Model Regions of Integration" of the Hessian Ministry of Justice, for Integration and Europe

With the developed programme "Model Regions of Integration", the Hessian Ministry of Justice, for Integration and Europe wanted to connect the existing activities of the state and the regional governments, develop common overall concepts and, by coordinating the numerous measures and projects, create the basis for an integration policy that is fit for the future. The six cities and communities (model regions) chosen for the programme had applied for it with innovative project proposals.

In order to obtain reliable statements on the quality of the processes and results as well as recommendations for an optimisation, the Hessian Ministry of Justice, for Integration and Europe engaged the efms to scientifically monitor, support and evaluate the programme "Model Regions of Integration". This was carried out in a participatory manner and with an emphasis on the field of programme evaluation. The efms evaluated the complete programme "Model Regions of Integration" as well as selected projects that were implemented in the specific regions.
