Studies
The European Migration Network produces 3–4 thematic studies per year. The thematic studies address a specific migration-related theme that is current or otherwise relevant. The themes are selected on the basis of proposals made by the National Contact Points and the European Commission. The National Contact Points first prepare national reports regarding the study, based on which the Commission’s service provider writes an EU-level synthesis report. The synthesis reports are available on our website and the EMN’s international website. The national reports concerning Finland are available on our website in bilingual publications in Finnish and English.
