The EU Commission and Europol organise a conference to tackle migrant smuggling

The event is co-organised by the European Commission and Europol's European Migrant Smuggling Centre with the participation of the Commission's Deputy Director-General for Home Affairs. 

This conference, the first in a series of meetings, is crucial in addressing the pressing issue of digital migrant smuggling. It is a direct response to the Call to Action for a Global Alliance to Counter Migrant Smuggling, a significant initiative launched on 28 November 2023.

Smugglers increasingly leverage digital services, such as social media, in all their operations, from advertising to transferring money. This rapid shift to digital platforms presents a new and urgent challenge to law enforcement and judicial authorities in investigating, prosecuting, and convicting smugglers.
