SHARE Settlement and Integration Roster
ICMC Europe seeks expressions of interest from practitioners in new resettlement countries to receive targeted, expert support from the SHARE Settlement & Integration Roster. The Roster supports the latter stages of the resettlement process: preparing for arrivals, supporting refugees during the first weeks of arrivals, strengthening local multi-stakeholder cooperation and planning for longer-term integration.

Recognising the need for new approaches to address global displacement and the few opportunities available for refugee resettlement, the European Resettlement Network has broadened its scope of activities to include research on complementary pathways of admission for refugees to Europe.
The ERN+ Scoping Paper on Student Scholarships for refugees explores the existing higher education opportunities for refugees to arrive safely in the EU from first countries of asylum in the framework of a study programme and how these represent one way to complement the efforts made by States to welcome refugees through resettlement and other complementary pathways of admission.
