This presentation examines an on-going longitudinal European research project that focuses on developing transversal strategies for social and educational integration of citizens, migrants, and refugees in sustainable and intercultural cities. To achieve this aim, a needs analysis of the partnership cities is at the heart of this proposal since it is essential to identify in situ the local challenges from the interdisciplinary perspective the research network brings to the project. The gathered data will sustain the transversal and comparative approach applied in the project proposal as articulatory axes to examine current European cities' needs and challenges. The specific data analysis about partners' local cities will set the basis for defining and developing joint interdisciplinary academic and training programmes on the inclusion and integration of citizens and migrants in sustainable European cities.
