The HumCore project aims at fostering integration of third-country nationals in need of protection thanks to the improvement of the procedures and practices of the Humanitarian Corridors (HC), a Private Sponsorship Scheme (PSS) operating since 2016. By involving 9 EU countries and combining the review analysis of the aspects of HC specifically linked to integration with capacity building activities addressed to the sponsors, HumCore aims at getting an enhanced scheme offering a better integration. Starting from the experience of partners involved in the implementation of HC, HumCore evolves towards a major spreading of HC into the entire EU, also engaging countries not yet implementing HC, but interested by migration as well, from different sectors.
In the project, SRPI leads a large-scale study of the integration model of the Humanitarian Corridors – “Participatory Action Research on the Integration Model”, aiming to identify approaches for optimization, expansion and transfer of the schemes. As the leader in the study our team created a methodology and toolkit for focus group discussions and interviews with different groups of respondents in countries with and without experience in implementing Humanitarian Corridors and created three analytical reports based on the data provided by all partner institutions.
