GREECE: Migration reforms threaten civic space, watchdog CSOs’ and rights groups’ oversight 

Prepared by: ECF 

New measures by the Greek Ministry of Migration and Asylum threaten to restrict civic space by limiting CSOs’ access to migrant reception facilities and curtailing independent oversight. By potentially removing groups from the official registry for opposing government policy, legally challenging state decisions, or alleged fund misuse, the reforms risk undermining civil society groups’ ability to protect migrant’s rights.
