The discussion paper “Migrant Families in Europe: Evidence from the Generations & Gender Programme” (2019), edited by Teresa Castro Martin, Judith Koops, and Daniela Vono de Vilhena, examines the lives of migrant families across Europe using data from the Generations and Gender Survey (GGS). It includes studies from countries such as France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Estonia, focusing on topics like family formation, social support networks, and intergenerational ties. The findings highlight differences in family behaviors among migrant groups, the role of cultural and economic integration, and challenges related to the well-being of older migrants. The paper emphasizes the value of GGS data for migration research and its potential for policy insights into integration and family dynamics.
