BERLIN, July 12 (Reuters) - Of the more than 1 million Ukrainian refugees who came to Germany to escape the war, 44% would like to stay in the country, according to a survey published on Wednesday.
This was higher than the 39% of Ukrainian refugees who said they were planning to stay in a previous survey published in late summer 2022.
The reason given for this was high participation in integration and language courses, intended to boost employability.
Half of the Ukrainian women who came to Germany as refugees after Russia's invasion of the country in early 2022 have at least one child.
The survey, which includes the responses of 7,000 Ukrainian refugees living in Germany, is a joint effort of the DIW Berlin institute, the IAB, the ministry for migration and refugees as well as the federal institute for population research.
