    Goals / Remit

    The International Rescue Committee Europe is part of the IRC global network, which has its headquarters in New York and London. The IRC is on the ground in more than 40 countries, providing emergency relief, relocating refugees and rebuilding lives in the wake of disaster. Through 22 regional offices in cities across the United States, the IRC also helps refugees resettle in the US and become self-sufficient.

    Main EU files targeted

    The IRC has been engaging in advocacy and policy activities towards the EU Institutions, with particular focus on the EU Commission. DG ECHO and DEVCO are IRC's key targets for policy activities especialy in the following areas:

    - European refugee crisis
    - Women/girls protection and empowerment (e.g. ECHO policy on "Gender in Humanitarian Aid: Different Needs, Adapted Assistance" and the EU Gender Action Plan 2016-2020);
    - Urban refugees and protracted displacement situations;
    - Context-specific policies and programmes;
    - EU humanitarian funding.

    The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.

    1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
