EPIM aims to foster networking among its grantee organisations. The value of networking and pan-European cooperation and collaboration is central to EPIM, itself a collaborative initiative.
Transnational networking enables NGOs to learn from the advocacy strategies and experiences gathered in other countries. Networking through EPIM can foster vertical linkages between national and European NGOs to bring experiences from the grassroots level to the attention of European policy-makers. It can also inform the national/local levels about the agenda and legislative framework negotiated in Brussels.
NGOs and Foundations’ engagement at the local, national and European level is critical in order to make real changes. Joint advocacy leads to more powerful influencing towards an effective migration and integration agenda and by working in partnership EPIMs’ network spans across partner foundations, NGOs, academic and civil institutions. EPIM has links to more than 450 partner organisations in 45 countries.
