The Prague Process Policy Talk: ‘Looking into 2023: What migration dynamics and policy developments to expect’ with Mr Jean-Louis De Brouwer, Director of the European Affairs Program, Egmont Institute, and Mr Ralph Genetzke, Director, ICMPD Brussels Mission, is taking place on 26 January 2023 at 10:00 CET.
Following their two previous Policy Talks, Jean-Louis De Brouwer, Director of the European Affairs Program, Egmont Institute, and Ralph Genetzke, Director, ICMPD Brussels Mission, ICMPD, meet again to assess the main lessons from 2022 and look into the year ahead.
Will the ongoing polycrisis result in increased migration and displacement? How many more Ukrainians will be forced to leave their country and how to ensure their adequate reception and wellbeing? What progress to expect on the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum? How to tackle irregular migration flows along various routes? Can migration help to address labour shortages across Europe or shall we rather expect an ever-stronger securitisation of migration policies? What role can migration partnerships play in these challenging times?
The two distinguished panellists will try to address some of these questions in a discussion moderated by Malin Frankenhaeuser, Head of Policy, ICMPD.
