The adoption of the new Pact on Migration is bad news for the individual right to asylum in Europe. A new era is ushering in Europe that no longer has much to do with the right to asylum and the EU and its Member States are gradually moving further away from it. The deaths at the EU’s external borders will therefore not stop and the suffering of those affected and their families will not be ended but rather worsened through this new legislation.
But dealing with asylum and migration is not a side issue, it reflects the way we live together and democracy on our continent. This initiative deals with the way forward after this historical caesura in European asylum policy and aims at bringing together MEPs, NGOs and activists on the issue to discuss constructive ways & practical actions forward in our common fight for the right to asylum and a humane EU asylum and migration policy.
Please note that seats are limited, be sure to register on time.

The "Making Rights a Reality for undocumented migrant workers" conference is aimed at bringing together international law instruments protecting the rights of undocumented people, with human rights activism and practice. The conference strives to break new ground in the possibilities for international norms and their effective protection.
We encourage contributions by migrant activists and social organizations which should include in particular the voices of undocumented migrants, and topics such as migrant worker rights-claiming, trade unions and the human rights of migrant workers and much more.
Please submit your proposal by 19 February 2024 at makingrightsreality.rch@vu.nl.

References to human rights have become increasingly prominent in migration-related discourse and practices. Actors in migration societies frequently use the language of human rights to articulate their interests and goals. Concurrently, other actors challenge such rights-based claims to migrants’ inclusion. In the legal system, for example, doctrinal arguments based in human rights law and strategic litigation at the European Court of Human Rights play important roles in shaping European immigration and refugee law. In various contexts of political action, migrant and non-migrant activists, diaspora members and policymakers refer to human rights when making political claims, pursuing transitional justice, or legitimizing inclusionary and exclusionary migration and border policies. The advance of human rights discourse is also occurring in professional and other everyday contexts, where the attitudes of actors within migration societies are actually expressed and formed, such as in school contexts, in social work, and in social and traditional media. At the same time, however, European migration laws and policies are becoming increasingly restrictive, leading to human rights violations on a daily basis, discourses of exclusion, and a widespread perception of a “human rights backlash”. How do these observations match?
