Fragomen Partner Jo Antoons will be participating in the panel discussion A Reality Check on Labour Migration: Perspectives from the Private Sector at the Vienna Migration Conference (VMC). The conference is scheduled to take place on 22-23 October and will feature two days of insightful discussions and debates on pressing migration issues for Europe and its partners. The event will explore a range of factors that shape migration dynamics, policies, and partnerships.
The discussions aim to pinpoint solutions to current challenges and opportunities for the future. As ICMPD’s annual flagship event and a top forum for discussion on migration in Europe and beyond, VMC sheds light on key migration-related opportunities and challenges. The conference attracts ministers as well as leading experts and practitioners from governments across the EU, Türkiye, the Western Balkans, Africa and Central Asia, in addition to top figures from international and non-governmental organisations, academia, media, civil society and the private sector. Discussions are streamed online to bring VMC to the doorsteps of the wider migration community.
The conference provides an important opportunity for a diversity of voices to be heard, promotes clarity about different views and fosters space for compromise and cooperation to address challenges and seek opportunities together.
