Assessment Report
Between 15-23 September 2015, REACH conducted a study of current displacement trends of Syrian migrants to the EU, through data collected from the areas of departure in the Middle East, from transit points along the Balkan corridor, and through the monitoring of key social media used by asylum seekers. This report summarises key assessment findings, with the aim of informing the immediate response and contingency planning to the migrant crisis by European authorities and aid actors. Although findings cannot be generalised, they provide a good indication of the key trends and patterns of the crisis.
