PRAB Report regarding pushbacks at Europe’s borders- April-June 2021

PRAB Report regarding pushbacks at Europe’s borders- April-June 2021:

“Doors Wide Shut: Rights violations at borders re-confirmed, while the door for justice and the path to accountability remain closed”.

The PRAB initiative continued collecting reports on pushbacks, including chain pushbacks, from EU Member States (MS) and neighbouring countries between April and June 2021. The testimonies collected speak of wide presence of rights violations accompanying pushbacks, experienced by asylum seekers and migrants irrespective of their age, gender or vulnerability. Vulnerability assessments still remain sorely lacking at borders, and so do effective monitoring mechanisms of border practices. The lack of effective investigations of complaints related to pushbacks continues affecting asylum seekers’ rights to an effective remedy and states’ path to accountability.
