Country Policy Briefs
For each country under study, the country policy briefs identify the best practices and implementing issues of existing mechanisms to identify and assess the special needs of vulnerable migrants seeking protection. They formulate concrete policy recommendations.
These policy briefs were issued following the second research phase, during which we conducted ethnographic fieldwork among migrants and refugees to document their experiences of vulnerabilities, and how they navigate the ‘vulnerability’ categories that have been established by institutional actors in each of the countries under study.

These policy briefs were issued following the first research phase, during which we analyzed how institutional actors assess and seek to address migrants’ vulnerabilities in each of the countries under study. We did so based on the analysis of the relevant legal and administrative documents, as well as of the implementing practices that were documented through semi-structured interviews with practitioners.

Thematic Policy Briefs
The thematic policy briefs formulate recommendations on policy relevant issues, that were extensively discussed during high-level expert meetings based on the intermediate research results of the VULNER project.
The EU’s anti-trafficking Directive adopted a holistic, human rights sensitive approach but has not been implemented sufficiently in all member states’ legislation. In this policy brief, a group of eminent experts and Population Europe review the challenges and gaps in its implementation, such as a lack of adequate assistance and protection for victims of trafficking and missing identification systems.
Political decision-makers often rely on scientific evidence and expert knowledge as one of many inputs to make choices. But the interplay between science and politics is not easy. How can it be improved? We met with colleagues from academia and policy-makers to discuss the issue. Their best practices and strategies can be found in this policy brief written by Luc Leboeuf, Jakub Bijak, Birte Fähnrich and Daniela Vono de Vilhena.
In this policy brief, VULNER members
Hilde Lidén and
Sylvie Sarolea provide five policy recommendations.
The policy brief is part of Population Europe's policy brief series "Population & Policy Compact" and available
