This project investigates the extent to which different groups of young adults, with and without immigrant backgrounds, feel that they have autonomy, influence, and control over key life choices—such as education, employment, partner selection, place of residence, and family formation. The study builds on data from The Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Study in Norway (CILS-NOR), which has followed a cohort of young people since they were 16 years old. Now in their mid-twenties, this project will conduct a new survey with the same individuals.

In this project we will map employers' attitudes towards ethnic diversity in the workforce. The basis for the call is the premise that employers' attitudes and ability to deal with diversity among their employees is a key condition for an inclusive working life.
