1) Monitoring and advocacy towards EU policies on social rights, migration policy, labour rights, health, victim’s rights, gender equality and child rights.
PICUM works to ensure that EU priorities on migration are compatible with its objectives on quality and sustainable employment, adequate and decent social protection, combating social exclusion and poverty, and improving working conditions. PICUM regularly interacts with EU institutions to advocate for the inclusion of the human rights of migrants in EU policies. This includes, for example, advocacy towards in connection with the proposed recast of the Single Permit Directive; working with the EMN Return Expert group on alternatives to detention and deportation of children and people with vulnerabilities; meetings with MEPs on various policy and legislative files under the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum. PICUM regularly participates in strategic civil dialogue meetings organized by DG Employment. PICUM also follows the EU Victims of Crime policies and participates in meetings of the Victims’ Rights Platform, and meetings with the EU Coordinator on Victims’ Rights on safe reporting for undocumented victims of crime, anti-racism and gender-based violence.
2) Produce research and analysis concerning ongoing EU policy processes shaping the living and working situation of people with an insecure or irregular residence status.
Credible data and analysis on the living and working situation of undocumented migrants, alongside the articulation and promotion of good practices underpins PICUM’s efforts to influence the policy agenda and facilitate civil society engagement in key EU-driven processes on social protection and social inclusion. All recent publications can be consulted on www.picum.org.

13 meetings found. Download meetings

The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
