3 April 2018 – IOM, the UN Migration Agency, UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, and the International Catholic Migration Commission (ICMC) presented the outcomes of a project that developed innovative models to provide more opportunities for the protection of refugees in the European Union (EU).
The event focused on the main activities and results of the European Resettlement Network (ERN)+ project, Developing Innovative European Models for the Protection of Refugees and Providing Support to New Resettlement Countries. The EU co-funded project centred its research on the development of three complementary pathways of admission of refugees to the EU: private community-based sponsorship, higher education scholarships and humanitarian admission programmes.
