Inclusive Education Systems for Immigrant Social Integration: A Review of Literature

In the 21st century, there has been a growing global awareness of the issue of international migration. War, violence, starvation, famine, and climate change are all contributing factors to the exodus of people from their home countries. Migrants are more likely to choose socially, economically, culturally, and legally developed nations. On the other hand, migrants have various impacts on the country they migrate to. As a result, it’s essential to give immigrants new living arrangements and life dynamics. For immigrants to integrate into and be accepted by the society they came from, the educational system is essential. Education systems that prioritize inclusivity and tolerance for diversity generate a greater number of immigration policies and aid in the social adjustment of migrants. However, exclusionary and marginalizing attitudes and actions in society can result from nation-state-based education systems that are far from inclusive and view diversity as a threat. As a result, immigrants may get marginalized and develop their own cliques. Studies indicate that quality education and social cohesiveness in immigrant education are greatly enhanced by multicultural practices, language education support programs, and early childhood education in particular.
