Keeping an eye on Brussels by working together

The European Council on Refugees and Exiles (ECRE) was established to achieve results at the European level. Our European umbrella organisation closely monitors the legislative process in Brussels and seeks to influence it. VluchtelingenWerk is one of its founding members.

 

European Council on Refugees and Exiles

Active member of ECRE

ECRE consists of approximately 90 European NGOs working in the area of refugee protection. Because ECRE closely follows what is happening in Brussels, ECRE can try to influence European refugee legislation at an early stage. After all, European legislation will eventually be localised into Dutch law. It is therefore important to ensure that European legislation is as good as possible for refugees.
