Research and Migration Law Unit, IOM Country Office for Austria
The objective of the EMN is to meet the information needs, of Community institutions and of Member States’ authorities and institutions on migration and asylum, by providing up-to-date, objective, reliable and comparable information on migration and asylum, with a view to supporting policymaking in the European Union in these areas and to providing a factual basis for current discussions.
The EMN responds to information needs through reports, studies, Ad-Hoc Queries, so called “EMN Informs”, the EMN Bulletin and the EMN Glossary. It does not normally engage in primary research: instead, its key focus is to collect data and information existing at national and EU level and to document and make this information available more widely. The EMN analyses and synthesizes such information to improve its comparability and support harmonization at EU level.
