Perspectives on the EU's New Pact on Migration and Asylum

November 7, 2023

You are cordially invited to the Symposium "Perspectives on the EU’s New Pact on Migration and Asylum" hosted by the Malmö Institute for Studies of Migration, Diversity and Welfare (MIM) on 7 November, in Brussels.

The Symposium convenes academics, experts, policymakers and civil society representatives to discuss the implications of the new set of rules for migration patterns towards and within the European Union.

We will be joined by Dr Hanne Beirens, Director of the Migration Policy Institute Europe, Dr. Basak Yavçan, Head of Research at the Migration Policy Group, Dr Magdalena Ulceluse, Assistant Professor Malmö University, and Johan Ekstedt, Doctoral Researcher Malmö University.

Some of the questions that we will discuss include: what it is, what is it intended to achieve, what its implications are for migration patterns towards and within Europe, how exactly will the pact change the EU’s asylum process, what does the solidarity mechanism imply for burden sharing within the EU, what is envisaged for labour migration and inclusion within Europe, what are the implication of the agreements with third countries.
