Abstract: 

The European Policy Centre, the European Migration Network Finland, the Odysseus Academic Network and the Friedrich Naumann Foundation are pleased to invite you to the launch of the publication From Tampere 20 to Tampere 2.0 - Towards a New European Consensus on Migration.

This publication is centred on the twentieth anniversary of the Council Tampere conclusions of October 1999. The Tampere conclusions sketched out principles and guidelines that are still relevant for EU migration policy today. The anniversary of their adoption and this publication launch offer an ideal moment to discuss the future EU migration agenda in the light of the Commission’s plans for a New Pact on Migration and Asylum. This joint publication looks back at the Tampere legacy and puts forward proposals that can inform future EU migration, asylum and integration policy.

The publication was informed by a series of roundtables and consultations held by the partners over the course of the summer of 2019 in Brussels and by the Tampere 2.0 conference on 24-25 October in Helsinki, organised as a side event of Finland’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union.
