Non-removable migrants (preliminary results)
Non-removable migrants:preliminary conclusions In cases where the removal is not formally suspended, non-removable irregular migrants are at risk of arbitrary arrest and detention Where a formal suspension of removal is granted, access to basic socio-economic rights remains often inadequate Ways out of limbo difficult
Access to healthcare (preliminary results)
Practices to be promoted (examples): Encouraging healthcare access on the local level: the example of Sweden Pro-active initiatives in a generally restrictive context: the example of three German cities Assisting irregular migrant women: the example of Italy and Greece Innovative ways to address mental health: the example of Belgium
Conclusions • Need for coherent policy responses for irregular migrants in legal limbo • Need for an effective exchange of good practices in order to improve irregular migrants access to health care in practice
