Networks and Events

International events

From our organisation, we actively take part in international meetings and forums dedicated to migration, refuge and human mobility. These spaces allow us to share experiences, learn from other realities and strengthen collaboration networks with organisations, institutions and people committed to defending the rights of migrant people. Our participation aims to bring a local perspective with global impact, contributing to dialogue and to the construction of more humane and fair policies.
