Guidance for Municipalities

Guidance for Municipalities

The purpose of this Guidance is to assist municipal authorities in Europe in providing appropriate access to services for migrants with irregular status. It includes information on municipal policies and practices across a range of service areas and governance and administration as an evidence base for municipalities to develop their approach. The Guidance is primarily intended for municipal authorities, whether cities or smaller municipalities. Still, it is also aimed at the public bodies which work with them, including police forces, healthcare providers, and housing and education providers. Working arrangements between public bodies and nongovernmental service providers are one of the topics covered.
