Kurzbeschreibung

In 2015, the Federal Office for Migrants and Refugees (BAMF) recorded the arrival of 890,000 refugees to Germany. Another 290,000 came in 2016. This project aims to explore the impact of this refugee inflow in two parts. First, we will explore how refugees fare by investigating the role of ethnic enclaves in refugees’ human capital. Second, we will explore the impact of this refugee inflow on labor market outcomes of natives.
