| 4. | Europe 2020 puts forward three mutually reinforcing priorities based on smart, sustainable and inclusive growth. As part of its flagship initiative, European Platform against Poverty and Social Exclusion, it specifically references, the need to ensure social and territorial cohesion such that the benefits of growth and jobs are widely shared, and that people experiencing poverty and social exclusion are enabled to live in dignity and take an active part in society. It also references the area of Youth as a key domain within which the Youth on the Move initiative is tasked with enhancing the performance of education systems, both formal and non-formal, and to facilitate the entry of young people to the labour market. |

| 8. | racial, ethnic, cultural and religious diversity is a central feature of the European Union. Mobility and migration have been a major source of diversity; in 2011 there were 20,5 million third-country nationals, generally referred to as immigrants in the EU context, living in the EU, amounting to some 4 % of the total EU population and 12,8 million EU citizens living in another Member State than their own, representing 2,5 % of the EU27 population (4); |

CONSIDERING THAT:

| 13. | formal education and non-formal and informal learning are of vital importance for full integration and social cohesion.

Through the integration of young people with a migrant background in the educational system of the receiving country, they can broaden their knowledge, skills and competences, which significantly helps them to find employment; |

Furthermore, data indicate that young women with a migrant background are more affected by unemployment and social exclusion than young men; |

(3)  For the purposes of these conclusions the term ‘Young people with a migrant background’ will be used to describe legally resident young people who are third-country nationals irrespective of where they were born and those who became nationals of the receiving Member State but whose parents were born outside the EU. For the purposes of these conclusions, the term ‘young mobile EU citizens’ will be used to cover those EU citizens who reside in an EU country where they or their parents were not born, thus exercising their right to free movement and residence under the Treaty. There is a clear difference between the legal frameworks which apply to third-country nationals and to EU Citizens who exercise their right of free movement. It should be noted that all measures referring to integration apply to third-country nationals while the inclusion and active participation in local society applies to both the young mobile EU citizens and young people with a migrant background.
