The Otto Benecke Foundation can look back on 50 years of successful involvement in integration work. This volume offers insights into the history of the Foundation and some of the work it has done. Under the motto "integration through qualification", it offers a whole range of concepts for different migrant groups in Germany. It was and still is active at an international level, for instance with projects for German minorities in Eastern Europe. At the same time the Foundation has held numerous conferences and forums for building dialogue with politics, science and those actively involved in integration work at a local level in order to share their experiences, to get to know the points of view and concepts of others and to develop new concepts.
