About project
This work/research was funded by the European Union (NextGenerationEU) within the framework of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan of the Republic of Croatia 2021–2026 (NRRP), through the institutional project of the University of Split, IP-UNIST-50, approved by the Ministry of Science, Education and Youth of the Republic of Croatia.

Why this research
Existing research in Croatia has largely addressed the philosophical and political aspects of migration. We widen the lens to the full governance system.
Interdisciplinary approach
Legal, sociological, political, philological, security and communication perspectives are combined to understand every segment of migration governance.
Expected outcomes
A synthesis of findings into concrete proposals and recommendations for more effective and sustainable migration policies aligned with the EU acquis.
“Effective migration governance requires more than policy on paper — it depends on the norms, institutions and decision-making processes that turn intention into practice.”
