The future of migration and asylum in Europe

A reform of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) is to be achieved before the end of this European parliamentary term. In view of the renewed increase in the number of people wishing to immigrate to Europe, the debate revolves around isolation and defense. This does not do justice to the manifold aspects of human mobility and bears the risk of taking short-sighted political decisions.

Accompanying the CEAS process, this series of articles opens up German, European and international perspectives on a complex issue.
