VMC is Europe’s leading forum on migration and a global platform for tackling the policy dilemmas and seizing the opportunities that are connected with migration governance. Against the backdrop of a fast changing migration landscape, we aim to facilitate an open, inclusive and frank debate among a wide and diverse range of governmental and non-governmental stakeholders.
