EU Poverty Watch consultancy
A multidisciplinary enquiry into how migration status shapes exposure to poverty and access to protection from it.
The assignment
The report must show how migration status interacts with socio-economic systems to produce, deepen or prevent poverty.
In-work poverty, precarious employment and employer-dependent residence.
Housing, healthcare, education, social protection and income support.
Legal, administrative, economic and discriminatory barriers, including fear and status insecurity.
Our reading of Poverty Watch
Member reports are civil-society knowledge products, not raw data to be stripped of context.
People experiencing poverty are knowledge-holders whose evidence shapes interpretation and solutions.
Findings must become clear demands for EU institutions, Member States and national networks.
Analytical architecture
Rules · resources · roles · relations · results
Entitlement · conditions · enforcement
Encounters · harm · agency · solutions
Patterns · differences · gaps · practice
Actor · instrument · accountability
No evidence stream is treated as decoration or appended after the analysis.
Comparative method
A common codebook preserves national context while making recurring mechanisms comparable.
Legal & human-rights analysis
Lived experience
Testimony will shape causal analysis, interpretation and recommendations from the beginning.
Which institution, rule or sequence is being experienced?
What does the testimony reveal that policy description misses?
How do harms accumulate across work, housing, services and status?
What coping, resistance, collective action or solution is proposed?
Intersectionality
Migration status is analysed as one differentiating condition among others. Legal categories can themselves produce vulnerability.
Comparative synthesis
Mechanisms repeated across national reports.
How policy design, eligibility and delivery vary.
Where formal rights and actual access diverge.
Which groups carry disproportionate risk.
Approaches that remove barriers or strengthen agency.
What cannot be concluded, and whose reality is absent.
From evidence to advocacy
EU references appear where they identify a decision point, an instrument or an accountable actor.
What is happening, and to whom?
What shows it, and what produces it?
What changes in law, policy, funding or practice?
Who acts, by when, and how is progress tested?
