In their project report for the
Center for European Policy Studies,
Roberto Cortinovis,
Lina Vosyliute, and Helena Wack recommend that EU and national policymakers consider the following principles: Policies should be grounded on the ‘do no harm’ principle; policies should be ‘needs based’, and articulated by migrant men and women; and the proposed initiatives must advance agency or empower migrants, and be participative and inclusive.
