Indicator history

Since the beginning the Plano Nacional de Acção para a Inclusão (PNAI, 2003-2005) [National Action Plan for Inclusion] has the immigrant population as one of its main target groups (toghether with people with disabilities, children and older people). The second edition of PNAI (2006-2008) addressed immigration and disabilities through the lens of gender perspective and multiple discrimination. The third edition of PNAI (2008-2010) added also ethnic minorities as a target group.

The I Plano para a Integração de Imigrantes (PII, 2007-2009) [I Plan for Immigrant Integration] and the II Plano para a Integração de Imigrantes (PII, 2010-2013) [II Plan for Immigrant Integration] adopted several measures accross various policy areas, including the integration of immigrants in culture, language, employment, professional training, housing, gender issues and combating racism and discrimination.
