Being actively involved in civic, political and public processes—such as voting, attending community meetings, volunteering, or joining advisory groups—gives migrants the opportunity to contribute their experiences, perspectives, and ideas. This not only empowers individuals but also leads to more inclusive policies and services that reflect the needs of diverse populations.

Participation strengthens migrants' sense of belonging and ownership in their new home. It helps build their confidence, fosters mutual understanding, and breaks down barriers between communities. For societies as a whole, migrant participation and inclusion is essential for a healthy democracy and social equity.
