The aim of the conference entitled 'Young Migrant Women in Secondary Education': Promoting Integration and Mutual Understanding through Dialogue and Exchange' is to explore how the intersection of gender and ethnic stereotyping produces forms of exclusion and marginalization as experienced by young migrant women in the context of secondary education, and to expose the gaps between mainstream integration measures and young migrant women’s needs. Policies developed for the integration of migrant children in schools usually recognize the fluid and multiple aspects of cultural and language identities but less so the dynamic character of gender in relation to the transnational experience of migrants. Having abandoned past assimilation approaches, schools in many European countries now try to build integration policies and develop practices on the basis of respect for cultural diversity. However, gender mainstreaming is absent from such practices, strategies and policies.
