The purpose of this thesis was to identify challenges for Sri Lankans living in Pori region and find possible solutions to mitigate the problems. This thesis will be helpful to identify migrants’ integration process in Finland. I have done this thesis as my own idea and developed without a commissioner.

Then I have explained about challengers of Sri Lankan immigrants facing in Pori city and its effects on the community.
The research used mix method (quantitative and qualitative approach) for this the studies. Data collected through survey using electronic google forms. I published a google form link among the Sri Lankan community in Pori city area. Survey opened for response from 17th February 2025 to 3rd March 2025.during the time of survey ninety-one (91) Sri Lankans have participated for provide their responses. I expected to collect at least seventy-five responses. however, it was pleasure that expected number achieved with excess.
Survey results revealed that Sri Lankan immigrants are facing many challengers during their integration process in Pori city-Finland. Majority of the respondents expressed their ideas about the main challengers which they are facing in the process. Some people provide their emotions and expectations as minor immigrant group in the city. After considering closely about the challengers, I have provided some solutions to mitigate challengers faced by Sri Lankan immigrant community in Pori city.
