Background
The EU is currently preparing for the launch of the mandatory solidarity mechanism under the Pact on Migration and Asylum. This mechanism is intended to provide a framework through which EU member states can support each other in situations of migratory pressure, through relocations, financial contributions or other forms of solidarity.
ECRE and the IRC are co-organising this event in order to enable participants from the EU institutions, EU member states, international organisations, civil society organisations and academia to discuss the state of play, assess emerging challenges and opportunities, and put forward recommendations on the functioning of the solidarity mechanism.
Programme
- Panel 1 – Functioning of the solidarity mechanism and implementation expectations (moderated by ECRE)
- Panel 2 – Relocations under the solidarity mechanism (moderated by IRC)
