In this lecture, Michele LeVoy talks about undocumented migrants and people who have irregular migration status. She introduces the challenges that are faced by undocumented migrants who very often live in poverty and are exploited and abused. Within the lens of this matter, she also talks about possible solutions that governments are looking at, with a focus on regularisation policies – trying to achieve legal migration status.
This lecture was part of the 9th EMN Educational Seminar on Migration 2023 entitled "Protection of Migrants in Vulnerable Situations". All podcasts and presentations from the seminar are available at www.emnseminar.sk.
The seminar is organised by the International Organization for Migration Slovakia as the coordinator of the Slovak EMN National Contact Point. This activity is funded by the European Union and co-funded by the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic.
