A statistical annex published alongside the EMN annual report, containing a wide range of national and Eurostat statistics
on migration and asylum.

Annual reports on migration and asylum outline the most significant political and legislative
developments and debates in the EMN Member States and at EU-level in the year.
The reports provide a unique overview of migration and asylum-related developments.

This report maps the progress made by EU Member States and Norway in 2019 in the implementation of the recommended actions laid down in the 2017 Commission Communication on the protection of children in migration, with a view to further understanding progress made in the implementation of the Communication’s recommendations. The scope of this Report is limited to migrant children in the categories set out in the 2017 Communication:  accompanied minors/families with children,  separated children and unaccompanied minors, including those recorded within the asylum system, not applying for asylum but recorded within other migration procedures, and not applying for asylum, who remain outside the asylum/migration/(child) protection system.

In 2017, the European Commission published a Communication on the protection of children in migration. This sets out actions to reinforce the protection of all third-country national migrant children at all stages of migration to and within the EU, at EU and national levels. This Inform summarises the results of the 2019 Report on the state of implementation of the Communication on the protection of children in migration. It maps the progress made by EU Member States and Norway as regards the recommended actions laid down in the Communication. A summary of the findings can be found from the EMN Flash, which is based on the Inform.
