This thesis deals with the issues of asylees and asylum seekers in the Republic of Croatia. It provides basic definitions and the legal framework, and it also presents the conditions with in the policies related to working with these particular groups. This thesis also describes the problems that asylees and asylum seekers are regularly faced with, from legal limitations up to the impossibility of learning the language or participating on the labour market. Migrants move between two cultures – their culture of origin and the culture of their new environment. Over the past four decades, the number of migrants has more than doubled, which means that there are over 200 million of international migrants in the world today. Migrations are mostly perceived as traditionally male oriented, although the number of migrating women has been increasing. Nowadays, the female share in the global migrant stock is 50 per cent. One part of this thesis includes the integration of asylees. This issue is observed through a number of laws and executive regulations. It also gives a review of key integration factors such as language learning, education, access to social welfare system, health system and employment. Each of these elements was analysed according to the relevant legal acts and executive regulations with reference to all the above mentioned factors. With all the disadvantages that were noticed during the analysis of the mentioned laws, the European Union and Croatia are moving in the right direction towards the construction of a successful integration policy and the creation of a multicultural society.
