Description

The project will contribute to ensuring an effective coordination among competent authorities and to develop strategies, action and contingency plans. The project will improve the effective monitoring of the various aspects of migration, the establishment of a knowledge sharing mechanism and the capacity building among the first line and supportive personnel. Through the project, qualitative and quantitative data on the area of migration and asylum will be produced, risks will be identified, contingency plans for high-influx situations developed and evaluations and statistics will be produced. The Norwegian Ministry of Justice and Public Security, as well as the Directorate of Integration and Diversity (IMDI) and the Ionian University, will support the project by providing experience and expertise.
