Connecting faith and social justice through action

Migration

Eurodiaconia envisions a welcoming Europe rooted in solidarity, equal opportunities and human dignity. With a focus on migration from a social inclusion perspective, we advocate for the protection of fundamental rights and that no one is left behind, regardless of their country of origin, ethnic background or status. Our approach emphasizes social integration and inclusion as a collaborative process, involving newcomers and local communities to foster diversity and social cohesion as key pillars of inclusive societies. In line with this vision, Eurodiaconia advocates for humane and right-based policies to address European skills and labor shortages. We underscore the relevance of accessing sustainable and decent employment as a key step for social inclusion, with particular attention to those who experience intersectional obstacles, such as migrant and refugee women. 

Eurodiaconia Migration Network brings long-term expertise in all the aspects of the reception, integration and inclusion of migrants, refugees, and asylum seekers — from immediate emergency aid to long-term inclusion, including access to social services, education, housing, healthcare and employment. Our members provide comprehensive support to third country nationals, including those facing complex barriers (e.g. women in vulnerable situations, unaccompanied minors, victims of human trafficking, or people with disabilities).
