European University of the Seas

The SEA-EU Observatory for Migration of Human Rights is a multidisciplinary and international team addressing the current challenges of EU governance and policy on migration matters and the changes in the protection of migrants’ rights

The reception of migrants is a European reality on which SEA-EU has the ambition to develop a determined action. The maritime and port nature of all the partner institutions of SEA-EU, integrated into trade networks, has placed them at the heart of the migration issue since time immemorial. SEA-EU therefore believes that it has a real legitimacy to address this issue among its priorities. Therefore, in line with the project proposal, the SEA-EU Observatory for Migration and Human Rights has been launched, gathering a multidisciplinary team of experts on migration. The Observatory is co-led by UBO and UCA.

Key facts about the Observatory:
