CLANDESTINO (Undocumented Migration: Counting the Uncountable Data and Trends Across Europe)
Clandestino is an interdisciplinary research project, coordinated by Elliamep, Greece and involving three IMISCOE partner institutions. It responds to the need for supporting policy makers in designing and implementing appropriate policies regarding undocumented migration. The project aims:
- To provide an inventory of data and estimates on undocumented migration (stocks and flows) in selected EU countries,
- To analyse these data comparatively,
- To discuss the ethical and methodological issues involved in the collection of data, the elaboration of estimates and their use,
- To propose new methods for evaluating and classifying data/e
The project will address these aims in selected EU countries (Greece, Italy, France and Spain in southern Europe; Netherlands, UK, Germany and Austria in Western and Central Europe; Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia in Central Eastern Europe). It will also look at transit migration in countries/regions used as key ‘stepping stones’ by undocumented migrants en route to the EU, notably Turkey, Ukraine and one Maghreb country.
