In the coming years, the European Union (institutions, Member States, national parliaments, EU agencies, regions, etc.) should mobilise its resources and have its legislative, diplomatic, financial, security and humanitarian instruments drive a global strategy.
To this end, for those working, researching or purely interested in this important policy it is critical to review, extend and update the knowledge and understanding of the instruments, best practices and tools on the current European migration and asylum policy.
The programme, therefore, includes an overview of the main legal instruments for migration management at EU level, as well as its main actors. Participants will understand and reflect upon implementation challenges that might arise when using these instruments at national level.
Linking theory to immediate practice, this three-day seminar incorporates interactive presentations on the technical content, practical case studies in small groups and feedback sessions.
The programme combines training sessions on both substance and skills:
Through this programme, participants will have an opportunity to:
The participants
The course is designed for officials involved in migration and asylum management working for the EU, its Member States and non-EU countries. It is also designed for professionals from NGOs, academia and legal practitioners and is especially relevant to media and journalists covering the topic.
Participants should have relevant knowledge on migration and asylum policy and a good command of English. The course will be restricted to a maximum of 25 applicants, allowing for an interactive environment that fosters discussions and facilitates networking.
The trainers
The sessions are given by high-level speakers from the College of Europe’s experts network: a faculty of excellence consisting of practitioners with a sound working experience in and/or with the EU institutions.
This three-day seminar includes a comprehensive analysis of the new instruments established by the new European migration and asylum policy.
The programme presents and analyses the different migration challenges that the EU and its Members are currently facing; followed by four sessions dedicated to the different EU responses. The first focuses on refugee movements, the second on irregular economic migration, the third on legal immigration (essentially labour and family reunification) and the fourth on EU external border management.
The programme ends with an interactive workshop looking at the future of the EU and debating as well as analysing strategic issues such as enhanced solidarity between Member States, the further development funding instruments and cooperation with third countries.
The curriculum is therefore designed so that theory and practice can be called on by the participants right after the course in their professional environment.
The training course will take place at the College of Europe Bruges campus.
