This project, carried out by Statewatch and migration-control.info and funded by Brot für die Welt, Misereor, medico international and Pro Asyl aims to make the EU’s border externalisation policies, plans and practices public. In doing so it seeks to highlight their impact on the rights of people on the move, as well as democratic standards, transparency and accountability. It addresses a lack of public information by publishing relevant EU documents, in this phase primarily those produced or discussed by the Council of the EU. It also tackles the overflow of information that results from a variety of EU institutions, working groups and national governments involved in the externalisation agenda by summarising thematic and regional developments, and by analysing key issues in depth.
Archiving key documents on border externalisation and related policies, currently focusing on the Council of the EU.
