Study Highlights Discrimination Faced by EU Citizens Living in GermanyTue 3rd Mar, 2026A recent comprehensive study commissioned by the German government has revealed significant challenges faced by citizens from other European Union (EU) countries residing in Germany. Shift in Migration PatternsHistorically, Germany experienced a net influx of EU citizens seeking work and better living conditions. However, recent data indicates a reversal, with more EU nationals leaving Germany than arriving. Unemployment and Long-Term ProspectsThe number of unemployed EU citizens in Germany has increased from 117,000 in 2011 to 219,000 in 2023. The study notes that any reduction in access to language and integration courses could negatively impact tens of thousands of EU citizens living in Germany.
