European Council on Refugees and Exiles

The European Council on Refugees & Exiles (ECRE) is a pan-European network of around 70 refugee-assisting NGOs. ECRE promotes the protection and integration of asylum-seekers, refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) by working for a humane and generous European asylum policy, consistent with international human rights standards. ECRE does this through information exchange, membership networking, research, policy development and advocacy towards EU decision makers and national governments.
