Informs
In addition to producing studies and reports, the EMN also produces shorter Informs on migration and asylum issues. Informs can be based on EMN studies or data collected by means of ad-hoc queries, for example.

This inform provides an overview on accompanied children’s right to be heard in international protection procedures in EMN member countries and Norway.

This inform explores displacement and migration related to disasters, climate change and environmental degradation. It aims to complement existing research by providing a broader perspective on how displacement and migration related to disasters, climate change and environmental degradation are being addressed by key national-level initiatives and policies in EMN Member Countries as well as non-EU OECD countries.

The new EMN Inform series is an update on the status of statelessness in EMN member countries and EMN observer countries (Norway and Georgia). Previous updates were published in 2016 and 2020. This report provides an overview of statelessness in the European Union (EU), including the legal framework, statelessness determination procedures, access to residence permits, citizenship and other rights, and the situation of stateless minors and those born enroute to the EU.

This inform covers the provision of housing to international protection applicants. The housing of other groups (i.e. beneficiaries of international protection and persons whose application for international protection has been rejected as well as beneficiaries of temporary protection) is also included.

This inform analyses the arrangements European Union (EU) Member States have put in place for accommodation and housing for beneficiaries of temporary protection, in the context of the activation of the Temporary Protection Directive (TPD) (2001/55/EC).

This inform analyses how Member States have organised access to social benefits, education, employment and healthcare.

This inform looks at the implementation, monitoring and evaluation, and effectiveness of bilateral readmission agreements signed by EU Member States. The Inform includes an inventory on bilateral readmission agreements signed by or entered into force in EU Member States in 2014-2021.

This inform strives to examine the impact of incentives and motives on a third-country national’s decision to depart voluntarily. Incentives refer to the measures offered by national authorities to encourage a third-country national to return voluntarily to a country. Motives, on the other hand, refer to the personal and contextual reasons on which a third-country national will make their decision to voluntarily depart or not.

This inform maps the policies in place in European Union (EU) Member States to provide support to legally residing migrants and ensure their access to mental health services.

This inform focuses on all third-country nationals who legally reside in the EU, including refugees. Migrants in irregular situations are not included in the scope of this inform.

This inform provides information related to the implementation of the Temporary Protection Directive (TPD), triggered in response to the refugee crisis caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022.

This inform relates to the scope of the Temporary Protection Directive, as well as registration of persons fleeing the war in Ukraine.
