Fedasil piloted shelter and orientation projects run by civil
society organisations and managed by city administra-
tions. In addition to offering shelter, these are designed
to provide intensive coaching and orientation to people
without legal residence, who have been homeless for a
long time and are willing to work towards a durable solu-
tion. Fedasil expanded its outreach activities and adapted
its services to (re)connect with irregularly staying mi-
grants (with or without return decisions) via low-threshold
services, such as a mobile outreach team, approaching
migrants living on the streets or in squats, frequenting
day centres, etc. Intercultural mediators proactively estab-
lish contact with migrants in need of orientation, providing
information that can result in a case resolution.
Croatia signed an agreement to introduce an independent
mechanism to monitor the conduct of police officers in
respect of irregular migration and international protection.
This continued the mechanisms implemented from June
2021 to June 2022. In Finland, the Ministry of the Interior
investigated potential solutions to address the situation
of irregular migrants. In February 2022, two reports were
published but no further steps were taken.
