Denmark's migrant ghettos

Available for over a year

Denmark's efforts to better integrate its migrant population are attracting controversy at home, and abroad. Twenty-nine housing districts, known as 'migrant ghettos', are now subject to special measures to tackle crime and unemployment, and encourage greater mixing between migrants and wider Danish society. In the run-up to Denmark's recent landmark election, Sahar Zand travelled to Copenhagen and witnessed immigration shaping the campaign debate, and questioned the country's politicians and migrants about these controversial policies.
