In October 2008, the Border Monitoring Project Ukraine (BMPU) was
established, it is a joint initiative of Ukrainian and EU-based NGOs.
The BMPU is a result of the NoBorder Camp 2007 in Uzhgorod/Ukraine. On
the one hand, the focus of the project is to document cases of
unlawful return/refoulement/readmission of refugees and other vulnerable
migrants from European Union countries to Ukraine and follow up their fate in
Ukraine. On the other hand, the project aims to help migrants in
Transcarpia in their daily struggles. Subsequently, we aim to build
pressure in order to put an end to these practices.
Please visit our new webpage and find out more about the situation on
the Eastern borders of the EU, the situation of migrants and
refugees in Ukraine and the activities of the BMPU:

The webpage is updated at least once a week to highlight arrests,
returns and deportations and policy developments in the region.
Greetings,
Bordermonitoring Ukraine
