List of achievements in the EU level:
- Participating in the Annual General Conference of the European Council on Refugees and Exiles (ECRE) together with the UNHCR-NGO Europe Consultations takes place on 23-24 October 2019 in Brussels, Belgium (Renaissance Brussels Hotel, Brussels, Belgium).
- Participating with the European Coalition and we believe in its aims:
1. Increase refugee participation in policymaking process.
Refugees have agency; therefore, we work to ensure that they have an active, effective, and relevant role in the refugee response at local, national, supranational, and international levels.
2. Improve refugee access to protection, rights, and shelter.
We work to improve the refugee response at all levels by sharing experiences and best practices between refugee-led organizations and by strengthening collaboration among refugee-led networks and other NGOs.
3. Find durable solutions and enhance refugee inclusion
Refugee-led initiatives are the key to improve local integration; therefore, we work to enhance the collaboration between refugees and host communities to make changes in policies that will benefit both.
4. Address root causes
By using our agency in relation to the causes of our displacement, we highlight the violation of Human Rights in the countries of refugee origin and seek the commitment of states to stop these practices.

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.
