Commission Recommendation of 23.9.2020 on an EU mechanism for Preparedness and Management of Crises related to Migration(Migration Preparedness and Crisis Blueprint)

Abstract

The refugee crisis of 2015 exposed weaknesses and gaps in EU and national migration crisis management systems as well as a lack of capacity and tools available to the Member States most under pressure. The crisis disclosed the need to act on several fronts simultaneously, in the third countries of origin, transit and/or destination, at the EU external borders and in other Member States under pressure.
