Stop the Inhumanity at Europe's Borders! - United Against Inhumanity

What is it about?

This campaign aims to bring together specialized organisations in the fields of humanitarian response, asylum and migrant rights in order to pressure European governments and relevant European institutions to profoundly reform the current border regime and practices, and to stop the appalling inhumanities being experienced by people on the move.

The Manifesto

After the official launch of the campaign on January 2024, the Collective Demand with an accompanying cover letter was sent to the Heads of European Governments. Since then, we’ve continued brainstorming, and as a result, the campaign’s Action Committee has produced a shared Manifesto—a foundational tool to call for meaningful political and moral change.

“This Manifesto calls for the humane treatment of people on the move — by providing safe routes to Europe and decent reception arrangements, by ending their containment in and expulsion to other places, and by ensuring access to justice and redress when their rights have been violated.”

Joint Statement on the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum

The Campaign Against Inhumanity at Europe’s Borders has launched a Joint Statement challenging the implementation of the EU Pact on Migration and Asylum where it risks undermining the rights, dignity and protection of people seeking refuge in Europe.

As the Pact moves from legislation to practice, we will continue to monitor, document and challenge measures that lead to exclusion, detention, pushbacks or other forms of inhuman treatment at Europe’s borders.

The statement has been formally submitted to the European Commission (DG HOME), Frontex, the EU Agency for Asylum (EUAA), the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (FRA) and the Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights.

Read the statement and follow the campaign as we continue to hold European institutions accountable.

Thank you for standing united—it’s time to act.

How was it created?

With the support of researchers, migration specialists, and dozens of solidarity organizations, we’ve analyzed the challenges and mapped out concrete political solutions structured around five key areas of demands for a more humane border policy.

But this Manifesto only gains power when it’s carried forward by all of us—150+ signatories and supporters of the campaign—standing together to bring humanity back to the center of European policies. Now it’s your turn.
