The Balkan Route 5 Years Later

Start date: 01/12/2020

End date: 31/05/2021

Funder: InCE

Operational unit: OBC Transeuropa

The project aims to explore the main aspects of the so-called "Balkan route," focusing on the situation in the countries most affected by the transit of migrants and on the most exposed borders (Turkey/Greece; Turkey/Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina/Croatia; Italy/Slovenia). The research, conducted in partnership by OBCT and CeSPI, will take a multi-perspective approach to examine the characteristics and evolution of the "Balkan route," and then investigate how migration is managed in the countries under study—from Turkey to the Italian-Slovenian border—and the impact of these policies both domestically and on international relations. This will be achieved by combining analysis of available sources with qualitative interviews of key witnesses.
