Understanding the Impact of Narratives and Perceptions of Europe on Migration and Providing Practices, Tools and Guides for Practitioners

Descripción del proyecto

DEENESFRITPL

Comprensión de las percepciones erróneas de los migrantes sobre Europa

Las teorías existentes sobre la migración se centran en los factores de impulso y rechazo. Por supuesto, los factores económicos, sociales y políticos son factores de impulso fundamentales, que explican cómo se forman las aspiraciones de emigrar. La forma en que se imaginan o entienden los lugares como deseables o atractivos es igualmente importante, especialmente si existen ciertas narrativas falsas que pueden influir en las decisiones sobre la migración. El proyecto PERCEPTIONS, financiado con fondos europeos, se centrará en la percepción de las personas, identificará las percepciones erróneas sobre la Unión Europea (UE) en el extranjero, e investigará los medios sociales y las nuevas redes de comunicación en la distribución de las narrativas y los mitos que circulan sobre la UE. Además, formulará recomendaciones políticas y planes de acción.

Objetivo

Narratives of a “better life” that can become reality elsewhere have always been shaping human migration. The image or idea of a “promised land”, however, might not be real, and newcomers are often faced with obstacles and challenges. Certain narratives and perceptions of Europe influence migration aspirations and false images can not only lead to problems when the image does not hold true, but it might also even lead to security threats or risks to migrants. It is, therefore, of the utmost importance to understand and investigate narratives about Europe, how these can lead to problems and threats, how they are distributed, and, in the next step, find ways to react and counteract them. Perceptions of Europe are formed in the country of residence, and they are based on a multitude of sources. Social media and new communication networks, in addition, have increased the scope and the intensity of distribution of such narratives; furthermore, so-called filter bubbles and echo chambers can lead to isolated misperceptions that are not corrected. Due to new communication technologies, false or incorrect claims become life on their own, raising expectations or disapproval. At the same time, however, these technologies and communication networks might also provide a channel to set an exaggerated image straight and promote a more realistic narrative. It is, therefore, the aim of the PERCEPTIONS project to identify and understand the narratives and perceptions of the EU abroad, assess potential issues related to the border and external security in order to allow better planning and outline reactions and countermeasures. For that purpose, the project will conduct research on the narratives and the myths that are circulating about the EU in countries West- and Central Mediterranean areas. Based on the research insights, the consortium will develop a PERCEPTIONS framework model including policy recommendations and action plans.
