What is integration is a two-way process?Show answer
The central point is that integration requires effort from both sides. Newcomers must do their part: learning the local language, respecting local customs and norms, taking part in community life, and showing willingness to belong. But locals must also do theirs: welcoming newcomers, including them in activities, giving them a fair chance, and not treating them with suspicion or hostility. Even a willing immigrant cannot integrate if locals shut them out, and even a welcoming community cannot integrate someone who refuses to adapt.
