The Directorate-General Research of the European Commission organised the Workshop ‘Undocumented and Irregular migration: policy developments, data and social implications’ on the 13th of November 2009 in Brussels. The objective of this workshop was to present the main results of the research projects CLANDESTINO and UWT to the policy community based in Brussels. The main topics discussed in the workshop were the CLANDESTINO database on irregular migration which presents and classifies (as low, medium or high quality) estimates and data on irregular migration in the European Union and in selected member states, the possible ways through which migrants become irregular and vice-versa, the impact of irregular migration in EU labour markets and the impact of member-states’ policies on regular and irregular migration.
