IRISS-CNR gathered, under the coordination of Giovanni Carlo Bruno, some prominent academics and experts for drafting a collective non-paper focused on the managing experience of migration flows in Campania, one of the regions of Southern Italy.

On that occasion, IRISS-CNR submitted a non-paper on “Regular and Undocumented Migrants, Fundamental Rights, Decent Work, and Integration in Italy: The Case of the Campania Region”
