Our focus this month<\/strong><\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

14 July | Fair Planet | US refugee resettlement remains frozen, but not for white South Africans<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

With resettlement quotas increasingly restricted, the legal pathways available to people in need of protection are also dwindling. Our Head of Research Dr Ba\u015fak Yav\u00e7an spoke with journalist Violet Ikong about the causes and implications of limited resettlement in this piece for FairPlanet. Read the full article to hear from refugees affected by these policies, too.<\/p>\n

Other examples of MPG covered in the media<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

16 July | Georgia Today | Europe\u2019s new migration and asylum law: externalization, security, and sovereignty<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The article cites MPG\u2019s stance on the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum. It notes that while there is a need for a more coherent European asylum system, there are questions whether the pact would adequately balance efficiency with fundamental rights, as well as how much its implementation will vary across the countries.<\/p>\n

21 July | VIsir.is | Verkin tala \u2013 en ekki um okkur<\/a> <\/em>[The work speaks, but not about us]<\/strong><\/p>\n

This opinion piece argues that Iceland should invest more in the integration of migrants since the country already relies on them economically. The op-ed cites MPG\u2019s Migrant Integration Policy Index (MIPEX) scores.<\/p>\n
