The Empowering Cities of Migration project focused on exploring the housing and integration needs of residents living in three different neighbourhoods in the UK, Gothenburg and Sweden that are becoming increasingly 'superdiverse'. A number of methods were therefore used to generate data: 1) 20 interviews with migrant women in each neighbourhood exploring their settlement and integration experiences; 2) 10-15 interview with stakeholders working in relation to each neighbourhood (from the public, private and voluntary sector) exploring how they were responding to the housing and integration needs of all residents living in each neighbourhood; 3) c.100 surveys with all individuals living in each case study neighbourhood exploring housing, neighbourhood, empowerment and integration issues; 4) a focus group in each neighbourhood with all local residents which explored some of the initial findings that emerged from the survey and interviews. Thus the following documents are available for use: 1. Interview topic guide - migrant women. 2. Interview template (summary) - which Community Researchers (CRs) used to complete summaries of the interviews undertaken with migrant women. 3. Interview topic guide - stakeholders. 4. Resident survey - indicative questions 5. Resident survey - questionnaire (questions set out for the UK) 6. Focus group topic guide - residents 7. Example of information sheet - interviews migrant women 8. Example of consent form - interviews migrant women Due to ethical and legal constraints the data cannot be made availableThe Empowering Cities of Migration project will create and train a new group of Community-based researchers drawn from marginalised neighbourhoods across three European cities experiencing population change. The researchers will use gender-aware methods to work with local communities, organisations and actors to develop new approaches for involving local people in tackling housing and urban planning problems. Through bringing together existing work undertaken by the project team, the overall intention is to empower local residents to work with housing, migration and planning specialists on creating new housing responses which help to avoid segregation and exclusion in diverse urban places.

Data was collected via a mixture of methods including interviews, survey and focus group.
