The integration of migrant women and youth into the labour market depends upon institutional ramifications (in particular
the immigration regime, the welfare model and the education system), on supply factors (in particular the educational attainment
level and occupational skills, language competence, ethnic origin and the proximity to the ethnic cultural identity of the
host country), and demand factors (in particular the composition by economic sectors, the division of work between the household,
the informal and the market sector and the economic and technological development level).
