The integration counselors are stationed at four Norwegian embassies. The measure was announced in the Action Plan against forced marriage in 2008. The integration counselors are supposed to aid victims of family violence, in addition to spreading knowledge on the issue based on their experience in the field. Is this measure working? Substantial and important work is being done by the counselors. However, the mandate should be amended, and the measure should be made a part of the general measures against family violence, rather than being a part of the efforts aimed at integration of minorities. The report is commissioned by IMDi and written by Beret Bråten and Kristian Takvam Kindt.
