In the 2023 pilot phase, Re:Match already matched and relocated 78 Ukrainian protection seekers from Poland to six German municipalities using its specially developed algorithm. The webinar presents two reports on evaluation results and policy findings and recommendations. Together with the state capital Düsseldorf, our partners Pairity (Canada) and Salam Lab (Poland) as well as Damian Boeselager, Member of the European Parliament (Volt/Greens), we present our key findings of the concept of Relocation via Matching and answer your questions.
For a progressive and effective migration and asylum policy, we need more solidarity in the European Union – with the people seeking protection as well as with the Member States where refugees first arrive.
To make this solidarity work in practice, the Berlin Governance Platform has piloted the “Re:Match – Relocation via Matching” project. Through an innovative, algorithm-based process, protection seekers in EU external border states are matched with welcoming European municipalities on a needs-oriented and individualized basis. With this unique municipal and participatory approach, Re:Match contributes to strengthening relocations through tailor-made solutions with better integration results. Enhanced with this matching concept, EU member states could be won over for the implementation of relocations.
