Current Developments
editOur information portal was last comprehensively revised and redesigned in 2022, thanks to funding from the Federal Ministry for Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth as part of the federal program "Counseling and Support for Foreign Refugees." This revision has allowed us to better tailor our services to the needs of our users.
The Informationsverbund Asyl und Migration e.V. is a central point of contact for anyone dealing with questions of asylum and residence law or integration in Germany. Through our work, we contribute to ensuring that refugees and their supporters receive the necessary information and resources to live and work successfully in Germany.
