A new OECD study has found Germany is successfully integrating migrants despite obstacles such as migrants often having little education.

If you were to listen to many in Germany, you would think the country’s integration of migrants and asylum seekers was going rather poorly. But a new study by the 38-member Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) shows that isn’t the case.

Despite a number of challenges — such as further education and training — Germany is doing a better job than many of its European neighbors when it comes to integrating new arrivals, the study finds.

    Ah yes, blaming migrants for women getting harassed or attacked… as if that wouldn’t happen to women regardless.

      Yeah I’m living in Berlin and I tried making some kind of very sad statistic of who harassed my girlfriend (it happens pretty much every time we go out in some way or another). The only common denominator is that all of the perpetrators are men. Catcalling, misogyny, actual physical harassment (luckily rare), it keeps happening. No matter the person’s phenotype, no matter if in German, English or another language, no matter the age. It’s ridiculous to blame this all on migrants.
