Andreia has worked on different research projects focused on EU legal migration policy, the free provision of services and the free movement of people. She contributed to the European Commission’s Legal Migration Fitness Check by comparing the different legal migration Directives, identifying gaps and inconsistencies and suggesting policy solutions to improve the conference and efficiency of the legal migration acquis.
