    Panel abstract: After decades, migrant integration in Europe is still a prominent challenge. The analysis of integration process and policies is at the core of the KING - Knowledge for INtegration Governance project that is aimed at providing policy recommendations supported by evidence within the frame of CBPs. The aspects of integration and integration governance are here presented considering that integration is a multilayered issue. In particular, the integration policies implemented at local level, and the integration through migrants voices will be the focus of the panel.
