Mobilizing the new Russian Diaspora in a context of sanctions, social exclusion and fear of repression (RUDIMO)
This project aims to provide a better understanding about conditions for the "new Russian diaspora” – the large groups that have left the Russian Federation after the 2014 invasion of Crimea and, in particular, following the 2022 full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
Unaccompanied minors living in reception centers - knowledge of living conditions and care situation
Fafo will research the living conditions of unaccompanied minors in reception centres and how their care needs are met. The project will lead to recommendations on how UDI can ensure that all unaccompanied minors in reception receive proper care.
Settlement of unaccompanied minor refugees
A new Fafo study will examine how unaccompanied minor refugees are looked after post-settlement.

Completed projects
Secondary migration among refugees - causes and consequences
Fafo and Oslo Economics are conducting a project that will provide better insight into the causes and consequences of secondary migration among refugees settled in Norwegian municipalities. In general, we want to shed light on the connections between refugees‘ migration decisions, managed and dispersed settlement, and the municipalities’ integration measures.
Irregular migrants in Norwegian cities
Fafo will investigate the possibilities and limitations municipal authorities have for influencing the situation of migrants without legal residence, in five Norwegian cities.
European management of migration and refugees
In this project, MARE, we look at Europe's role in the management of migration and refuges in 4 areas, Amman in Jordan, the Bequaa Valley in Lebanon, Agades in Niger and Nakivale refugee camp in Uganda.
