To accompany the launch of the report 'Mainstreaming a Minority Rights Based Approach to Refugee and Migrant Communities in Europe', in November 2017, Minority Rights Group Europe and the Centre Maurits Coppieters brought together experts from around the world to discuss an often overlooked aspect of one of the most pressing issues of our time. The seminar, 'Ideas for Europe - From Needs to Rights: A Minority Rights Perspective to Europe’s Refugees and Migrants', sought to take a fresh look at the inclusion and integration of refugee and migrant communities in Europe today, with particular emphasis on minority rights, and the tense relationship between the principles of universal human rights and rights for people from specific groups.
