Tiivistelmä

The main aim of this study is to present a holistic picture of the lives of women and families from India and Nepal in Finland. The study concentrates on issues connected to the process of migration, family, ethnic community, societal participation, employment and future life prospects in the new country. A central focus is on labour market integration, including the associated experiences and expectations. In addition, the study identifies good practices as well as problems with regard to the activities of Finnish authorities in migration and integration affairs. Furthermore, as this is the first broader presentation of people from India and Nepal in Finland, it also sets the field for further research and tries to identify possible themes for later study, while providing elementary information upon which subsequent research can stand.
