    What this call funds

    This call funds projects that identify promising tools, methods and innovations from past EU-funded migration research and help turn them into real policies and practices used by governments and organisations across the EU. The goal is to close the gap between research and real-world migration management by validating, adapting and scaling up existing solutions instead of creating new research from scratch. Funded projects should bring together researchers, policymakers, practitioners and civil society to make sure these innovations get actually used.

    Who wins this
