Timiș

Timiș county is one of the most economically developed regions in Romania, with an extremely low unemployment rate, a thriving commercial, industrial and educational centre. The county has a long and successful history of multiculturalism, as various ethnic groups (Hungarians, Germans, Serbians, Bulgarians, Ukrainian etc) have been living there peacefully. This mix of culture resulted in a way of life based on respecting each other's values and treasuring the individual features to the benefit of the common good. Moreover, Timiș is the westernmost county, neighbouring Hungarian and Serbian border and it is very well connected with the rest of the national and European transport infrastructure. Therefore, Timiș is a destination county - national migration towards Timis and extra-European immigration. Learn More

Navarra

The contemporary process of diversification of Navarre's society has its precedent in internal migration from other regions of Spain, which began in the 1960s. From the 1990s onwards, this flow was replaced by international immigration, which starred in a slight but steady rise during the last two decades, only interrupted from 2013 to 2016 by the economic crisis. International migration has been a determining factor in the diversification of current Navarre society, but it is not the only factor. Among the 10 most frequent origins in 2020, we find American countries - Ecuador and Colombia - but also European - led by Romania and Bulgaria - and African ones - Morocco. Learn More

Emilia-Romagna

Emilia-Romagna Region counts about 4,460,000 inhabitants (data on 1 January 2022), and 12.8% of the total population has non-Italian citizenship. The migratory phenomenon in the Region is relatively recent: it started in the second half of the nineties of the last century and then exploded and consolidated over the last twenty years. A period that, combined with a significant stabilization on the territory, leads to an increasing acquisition of Italian citizenship that in the last years is even more significant. It is thanks to the migratory flows that the regional demographic trends are kept relatively balanced. Regarding the countries of origin, more than 170 citizenships are represented in Emilia-Romagna.
