Description

We strive to reach the change in the area of migration, asylum, and integration policy and legislation in the Czech Republic through the combination of advocacy, analytical and informative activities. 

The aim of the project is to contribute to a fairer setting of the migration and integration policy of the Czech Republic, especially in their particularly pressing aspects: Advocacy activities will lead, for example, to the introduction of a transparent system of control of employers within the so-called programs for the acquisition of foreign workers, where violations of the rules are monitored and lead to the application of sanctions. Migrants will gain better access to health insurance and care. As a result of our activity in the project, there will be no deterioration of human rights standards in the relevant legislation. Thanks to our work with data, the relevant actors will learn to collect data, analyze it and use it as a basis for creating policies and measures in the field of migration and integration. Establishing cooperation with other affected entities (unions, municipalities) will then lead to their involvement in comment procedures and in the creation of their positions with the NGO Consortium. The project also aims to strengthen the capacities of NGOs, namely in working with data, clearly defined strategists goals and ensuring higher stability of the organization''s work team. In the field of data analysis, we will support the creators of measures and policies to use them in the most modern way, which will increase the effectiveness of policies in the field of integration, and at the same time will enable effective evaluation of established measures. Advocacy activities will use legal, data and expert analyzes to promote the introduction of control mechanisms in the field of employment of foreigners, to protect migrants from discrimination and violations of their fundamental rights.
