We work for a world where everyone can enjoy their human rights, whatever their migration status. Check us out on picum.org
In 2025, at least 110 people faced judicial proceedings in the EU for helping migrants. Most cases were in Greece (50), Poland (20), Italy (19), and France (14). Find out more in our latest report picum.org/blog/at-leas...
Today's vote paves the way for mass detention, family separation and deportations - normalising abuse we've seen with ICE in the US. Now Commission, Council and Parliament will work to hammer out a final text. Help us stop it. Share, mobilise, sign the petition: action.wemove.eu/sign/2025-12...
French NGOs @ldh.fr @utopia56.bsky.social and @anafeasso.bsky.social accuse him of having encouraged Frontex agents to facilitate the interception of migrant boats by Libyan and Greek authorities in the Mediterranean. Fabrice Leggeri is now an MEP with far-right Rassemblement National.

⭐ Digital tools can help labour inspectors but must not become yet another deportation tool. Find out more in our latest report: picum.org/wp-content/u...
Tommy Olsen, founder of @aegeanboatreport.bsky.social, has been arrested in his hometown in Norway following a European arrest warrant by Greece. His "crime"? Documenting pushbacks and helping people in need in the Aegean. This arrest is a shameful attack against solidarity and human decency.
Every day, across Europe, millions of people rely on the dedication of Personal & Household Services (PHS) workers, who provide care or domestic support for people in their homes. Help us better understand PHS by filling in the survey now:

Happy and proud to join calls to protect EU funding for social inclusion. Support must reach those who are being marginalised in our societies.

This vote seals a toxic alliance between centre-right and far-right forces, after weeks of backroom deals to kill the last remaining safeguards in a bill that will harm millions. Human dignity, freedom, equality: this vote betrays the very values the EU claims to uphold.
Identity checks, surveillance, humiliation, violence. In our new joint booklet with @enareurope.bsky.social we document how racialisation operates at and through Europe’s internal borders - with testimonies from the Basque Country, France/Italy, Germany, Croatia. Read it: picum.org/wp-content/u...
Last week, civil society organisations, advocates, activists and progressive politicians gathered to say no to the EU Deportation Regulation - right in front of the European Parliament. ✊🏿✊🏽✊🏻 We had to come out too.
The European Parliament is about to vote. 📢 Let's make our voices heard. Read on for what you can do - and help us share this post ❤️
Days ago, in Ravenna, Italy, police raided a hospital and launched an investigation against doctors who refused to ok immigration detention for undocumented people, citing health reasons. Full solidarity to the doctors involved, "guilty" of doing their job. bologna.repubblica.it/cronaca/2026...
Home raids. Mass surveillance. Racial profiling. With 80+ organisations, we're opposing the new EU Deportation Regulation. The proposal would expand immigration raids + surveillance and turn public spaces + services into tools of immigration enforcement. Full statement: picum.org/blog/no-to-e...
🚨 Top UN human rights experts have signed a letter to EU institutions denouncing human rights risks in the EU Deportation Regulation. This is a damning condemnation of a draconian measure that sees and treats migrants as a threat. ✉️ Read the full letter on spcommreports.ohchr.org/TMResultsBas...

We needed this news SO MUCH ❤️ The Spanish government has announced today a broad regularisation programme which could benefit around 500.000 people. At a time when a hostile environment against migrants is spreading on both sides of the Atlantic, this move shows both humanity and common sense.
2025 has not been an easy year. Yet even amid repressive policies, solidarity and resistance continues to break through. On this International Migrants Day, we share the stories that inspired and encouraged us this year. Read them all from our final newsletter: 7z96.mjt.lu/nl3/484AhyWE...
🚨 Today, the EU Council is set to endorse home raids to search for migrants. This is what a police-state looks like. We must stop this, help us share.
🔥 NEW 🔥 What does regularisation mean for people and society? Our new report tells you what 50 years of research have shown. Check it out! 📖 Read on lnkd.in/dEhcM26T
🎉 BREAKING: Human rights and transparency can’t be sidelined. Following our complaint, the EU Ombudsperson found the Commission breached its own rules. This decision should be a wake-up call for EU institutions to ensure accountability, public scrutiny, human rights protections in EU policymaking.
💜 No woman should have to choose between safety and deportation. With or without papers. Today, we're launching a new briefing outlining 6 actions the EU and member states can take to guarantee justice and protection for undocumented survivors of gender-based violence. (sneak peek in thread!)
🙅♀️ No papers, no protection? Join us as we launch our new briefing and discuss justice for undocumented survivors of gender-based violence with advocates and frontline experts. 🗓️ 24 Nov ⏰ 1-2 pm CET ✍️ Register on crm.picum.org/civicrm/even...
🚨 The European Parliament is about to start debating a law that would harm millions across Europe. With 250+ groups we call on EU lawmakers to reject it.
We were happy to meet the Commissioner to discuss combatting the exploitation of undocumented workers, including improving labour inspections, remedy mechanisms and regularisation programmes. Fundamental and human rights are non negotiable. The labour rights of undocumented people are no exception.
I met with @PICUM_ today to discuss the protection of migrants from exploitation, the prevention of illegal employment and ensuring a level playing field in Europe’s labour market.
📢[NEW REPORT] Last week 26-year old Mahmoud from Palestine killed himself in immigration detention. In 2024 close to 5,000 people were locked up in detention centres in Belgium. To find out about Palestinians, and what we see week after week behind the fences read our latest report: t.ly/GGk2g
