60 Years after the signing of the Rome Treaty, Europe is not a pretty sight. The UK is leaving after a guest performance of 44 years; populism and Euroscepticism prevail in many Member States; the days of an ‘ever closer union’ seem to be numbered.

L’objectif de cette campagne et des visites parlementaires est de renforcer la vigilance, de souligner la nécessaire transparence de ces dispositifs, et de donner plus de visibilité aux problèmes liés à la détention des migrants afin d'inciter les responsables politiques européens à encourager l’évolution des législations européenne et nationale pour les rendre exigeantes en matière de respect des droits de l'Homme.

with
Alexis Deswaef, president of HRL (Belgium)

The stakes involved in accessing these detention centres will then be presented to all MPs, through the statements of the European committee for the prevention of torture and of the Association for the prevention of torture.
The objective of this meeting and of these parliamentary visits is to reinforce scrutiny, to underline the necessary transparency of these measures and to give greater visibility to the problems linked to migrant detention in order to urge European politicians encourage the evolution of national and European legislation in order to make them more demanding for the respect of human rights.
