Migration,
Poverty &
Social Exclusion

EU Poverty Watch consultancy

A multidisciplinary enquiry into how migration status shapes exposure to poverty and access to protection from it.

Eufonía.02

The brief as we understand it

Not migration policy
in the abstract.

The report must show how migration status interacts with socio-economic systems to produce, deepen or prevent poverty.

≈20 national Poverty WatchesOne comparative European advocacy report

The enquiry

01Work & incomePrecarity, in-work poverty and employer-dependent residence.
02Protection & servicesHousing, health, education, social protection and income support.
03Rights & non-take-upLegal, administrative, economic and discriminatory barriers.

What Poverty Watch requires

National knowledgeContext remains visible.
Lived expertisePeople experiencing poverty are knowledge-holders.
Advocacy utilityEvidence becomes demands.

A civil-society evidence product with a political purpose.

Eufonía.03

The Eufonía difference

Three forms of expertise.
One evidence-to-advocacy chain.

01
Civil society
+ systems

Direct consultancy with European NGOs and networks, including FERN, Oxfam EU, EEB and the European Youth Forum.

Rules · resources · roles · relations · results
02
Migration
+ effective rights

Public international law, asylum and protection expertise grounded in applied legal advocacy.

Formal entitlement · access · remedy · outcome
03
Participation
+ institutional power

Qualitative and educational practice across justice, prison education and institutional access.

Knowledge-holders · agency · context · power
THE RESULTTraceable evidence.
Advocacy-ready recommendations.

Rigour, rights analysis and civil-society usefulness designed together.

Eufonía.04

Integrated methodology

Four evidence streams.
One comparative finding.

01National Poverty Watch evidenceCountry context · reported patterns · page traceability
02Structures & institutionsRules · administration · labour markets · welfare systems
03Legal & effective rightsStatus · conditions · access · safety · remedy · outcome
04Lived experienceInstitutional encounters · harm · agency · solutions

Structural and legal analysis

A right on paper is not yet
a right in practice.

Effective-rights pathway

01Formal rightWhat standard applies?
02ScopeWhich statuses are covered?
03ConditionsResidence, work, contribution, proof.
04AccessCost, language, digital barriers, delay.
05Safety & remedyCan it be claimed without retaliation?
06OutcomeWhat happens in people's lives?

Structural test

Where is exclusion produced?

ResultsWho benefits?ResourcesWho can access support?RolesWho decides and delivers?RelationsWhere does dependency sit?RulesWhat is formal or informal?
THE COMBINED RISKExclusion from rights+Constrained access to support
Eufonía.06

Lived experience + intersectionality

Not a quotation layer.
An analytical stream.

Testimony will shape causal analysis and recommendations from the beginning.

MechanismWhat does testimony reveal that policy description misses?
ConsequenceHow do harms accumulate across domains?

Eufonía.07

Comparative synthesis + advocacy

Compare mechanisms.
Name the route to change.

National realities remain visible while recurring structural mechanisms become actionable European findings.
