About ICMC Europe

ICMC Europe is the EU policy and programme office located in Brussels representing ICMC at European level, coordinating advocacy actions and implementing networking, capacity-building and multi-stakeholder collaboration programmes, particularly in the areas of refugee resettlement, mixed migration, integration, human trafficking, and migration and development.

ICMC Europe works to promote resettlement in Europe and, with its partners IOM and UNHCR, develops the European Resettlement Network< to build European resettlement capacity and expertise. To engage local and regional actors as new actors in the wider European Resettlement Network, ICMC Europe is currently implementing the SHARE Project<, a 24-month pilot programme funded by the European Commission and begun in early 2012. SHARE builds a resettlement network of European regions, cities, municipalities and their civil society partners involved in and/or with a commitment to refugee resettlement, protection and integration.

Via the Resettlement Saves Lives< campaign, ICMC Europe together with other leading NGOs in the field, advocates for 20,000 places for resettled refugees to be offered by European countries each year by 2020.

ICMC Europe is a member of the FRONTEX Consultative Forum on Fundamental Rights, the Fundamental Rights Platform of the EU Fundamental Rights Agency (FRA) and the European Asylum Support Office (EASO) Consultative Forum.

ICMC Europe is a member of ECRE (European Council on Refugees and Exiles) and PICUM (Platform for International Cooperation on Undocumented Migrants).
