The goal is to strengthen the reporting system in IMDi and Bufdir by proposing solutions that support the services' mandate, cover the full range of activities and results, and contribute to better governance and development of practice.
Autonomi and control over life choices in transition to adulthood
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.
