Title (eng)
Ethics and data on irregular migration
Description (eng)
Key points
• Embed ethics and rights-based approaches into migration research: Go beyond compliance
with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the Artificial
Intelligence Act, as well as other technical guidelines to minimise harms such as surveillance,
discrimination and misuse of data concerning vulnerable groups
• Ensure transparency and accountability: Acknowledge uncertainty, avoid uncritical use of
categories, and prevent data misuse in shaping restrictive policies.
• Build trust and inclusive governance: Strengthen safeguards, clear communication and
migrant engagement to support ethical and effective data collection and use.
