DESCRIPTION:Hybrid panel discussion Co-sponsored by the Centre for Human Ri
 ghts and Legal Pluralism and the ASILE Project\n\nAbstract:\n\nEuropean Un
 ion has intensified its cooperation with third countries in the field of a
 sylum and migration and provides support for asylum systems in Tunisia and
  Turkey through a range of instruments including technical means (advice\,
  training\, capacity building)\, operational assistance (such as Frontex o
 perations) as well as financial support for refugee status determination\,
  refugee reception\, migration and border management. In this panel discus
 sion specific focus is given to the instruments’ compliance with transpare
 ncy and accountability principles and international law\, the extent to wh
 ich the results achieved have been oriented towards facilitating mobility 
 or the containment of asylum seekers and refugees\, as well as their align
 ment with the United Nations Global Compact on Refugees (GCR) and the Glob
 al Compact on Migration (GCM). The analysis is based on the field research
  conducted within ASILE Project in selected countries including Tunisia an
 d Turkey. These different case studies allow for the identification of fun
 damental challenges of European external asylum and migration policy which
  are not specific to just one third country.\n\nSpeakers:\n\nThomas Spijke
