Event Description

You want to learn about the EU’s new legislative and policy responses to the current “migration crises”, and the challenges of policy formulation and regulation of asylum matters, in a crisis, which does not simply pose a challenge in itself but also entail much broader questions about Europe’s future, identity and responsibility.

This seminar explains the policy considerations and legal concepts related to asylum law, as developed in the European Union’s Area of Freedom Security and Justice, and examines the core principles, concepts and some EU specific institutions related to asylum and refugee law as evolved in the EU’s Common European Asylum System (CEAS), complemented with an introduction to policy considerations and legal concepts related to regular and irregular migration.

How will it help you?

You will acquire a distinguished understanding of EU law and policy related to asylum and migration, the key issues pertinent to the recent “migration crises”, as well as the European and national responses to the recent “migration crises”.

Who will benefit most?

The seminar is targeted to practitioners dealing with aspects of European integration, governmental officials, legal practitioners, and administrators and officers from EU institutions and agencies.

Learn what does the European Union do in relation to immigration and asylum.
