Follow the Money for Women and Girls: Addressing the Needs of Women and Girls in the Asylum Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF)

Authors	Sinem Yilmaz, European Network of Migrant Women
Description	The budget is a powerful instrument revealing political priorities and a tool to transform societies. Societal values can be determined by how the money is spent. This study provides an overview, an analysis and an evaluation of the use of Asylum Migration and Integration Fund for transnational activities, based on publicly available information. The goal of the study is to analyse how this fund functions to respond to the needs of migrant/refugee women and girls and facilitate their integration. We also offer recommendations for the European Commission on how to improve the situation of migrant women and girls through the new Asylum Migration Fund (AMF) and ensure implementation of gender mainstreaming in projects.

Volunteering: Perceptions, Experience and Barriers among Migrant Women, NGOs and Private Sector in Six European Countries

Authors	Sinem Yilmaz, European Network of Migrant Women
Description	Volunteering as an integration method has been highly beneficial to any participant and the receiving society. However, there is a lack of knowledge and data about migrant volunteering in European countries. As a multi-agency cooperation project, SMART Volunteering aims to fill this gap by exploring understanding of volunteering among migrant women and the crucial roles of civil society organizations and business actors in creating the conditions conducive to social integration. The research works on broadening traditional concept of volunteering by highlighting its more strategic aspects . This summary report, collated by the European Network of Migrant Women, is based on the national reports in Belgium, Cyprus, France, Italy, Spain and United Kingdom, written by SMART Volunteering partner organisations.
