Along with other European Christian organizations, ICMC recently sent a letter to the European Union, urging the European Council to reconsider its proposal to adopt the new EU Migration Partnership Framework.

The EU Migration Partnership Framework “appears to be mainly a security measure and not a response to the human rights issues at stake. If not rejected, this proposal risks being the end of the European Union values,” the letter reads.

WHAT WE DO

ICMC provides assistance and protection to vulnerable people on the move and advocates for sustainable solutions for refugees and migrants.
