The integration of migrants who make up a large part of the migrant situation in Germany is a central topic in the discussion. According to the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees there are many challenges that have to be mastered. In 2021, around 3.2 million third -country women who represent a heterogeneous group lived in Germany, in particular with regard to their educational qualifications and the employment rate. This is a significant difference to men whose employment rate is about 67 %.

The participation gap, which affects third -country women, often results from high recognition requirements of their qualifications and lack of childcare opportunities. These factors also affect their participation in integration and language courses. Therefore, integration policy in Germany has focused on the resources and skills of migrants to increase the participation in employment. Programs such as "strong in work" should help to make integration easier in the labor market and to improve access to opportunities.
