Secondary migration among refugees - causes and consequences
Fafo and Oslo Economics are conducting a project that will provide better insight into the causes and consequences of secondary migration among refugees settled in Norwegian municipalities. In general, we want to shed light on the connections between refugees‘ migration decisions, managed and dispersed settlement, and the municipalities’ integration measures.
Norwegian-Romanian Initiative for Quality in Education - NOROC
The project aims to improve the quality of educational services, in particular in rural areas, in five departments in Romania. The project aims to combat school dropout and facilitate the transition from primary to lower secondary education and lower secondary to upper secondary education for 650 children at risk.

Completed projects
High levels of absenteeism in Norwegian schools
Fafo will produce a knowledge overview of high absenteeism from school. The overview will say something about the causes of high absenteeism, the prevalence of absenteeism and changes over time, and about measures that work when it comes to reducing absenteeism.
Voluntary associations as information providers during Covid-19
The project will assess extraordinary grants to voluntary organizations for information measures for the immigrant population, and discuss the role of civil society in connection with the covid-19 pandemic. Carried out in collaboration between Fafo and the National Institute of Public Health.
