Migration

In September 2020, the European Commission published a comprehensive package of legislative proposals in the area of migration and asylum titled Pact on Migration and Asylum, which highlights the role of legal migration when it comes to creating tailor made partnerships with third countries. This would clear the way for cooperation on programmes that harmonise labour needs in accordance with the skills that are sought after in the labour market.

At the same time, the development of legal pathways should contribute to reducing irregular migration, which often leads to unregistered work and exploitation of workers in the European Union.

A more intense and comprehensive approach would provide for cooperation with partner countries, which would contribute to the strengthening of mutually beneficial international mobility. Also, as a good example from the Republic of Croatia, the new Aliens Act which entered into force at the beginning of this year made the Republic of Croatia one of the first ten Member States to also regulate the issue of the so-called digital nomads by providing the possibility of obtaining a one-year residence permit for foreign nationals who are working remotely.

The interest of the Republic of Croatia is reflected in these new policies through the arrival of young and talented people, as well as increased digital services and strengthened industry.

The Conference is designed for the general public, primarily young people, but also private companies that employ third-country nationals, and representatives of local authorities.

The Conference will be held on a live streaming platform.
