Research tells us that in every society, minority group members (e.g., immigrants) can integrate towards majority group members or locals' culture (e.g. White UK nationals). New work has demonstrated that locals can actually integrate towards minorities, too – and when they do, they seem to be more likely to experience benefits and fewer problems when it comes to overall prosperity, health and wellbeing.
