This Policy brief outlines hurdles of access to health care for migrants and discusses policy implications.

This book is one of the first systematic collections of studies based on the European tax-benefit microsimulation model, and thus a synthesis of the scientific work of researchers from more than a dozen of countries for over a decade.

Microsimulation models have become firmly established as vital tools for analysis of the distributional impact of changes in government programmes. They are used extensively to assess who are the winners and losers from proposed policy reforms.

Based on the comparison of detailed micro-data and potential entitlements simulated with tax/benefit microsimulation models, the Policy Brief estimates the size of non-take-up of monetary social assistance benefits in Austria, Germany and Finland after 2000.

Provides an overview of research activities and publications in 2009 and 2010.
