EUAA single programming document : multi-annual programming N+1 - N+3 (2024-2026) : work programme 2024 : amendment 1

The Agency's vision is to achieve a robust, resilient and future-proof multinational asylum and reception system, in line with European values and international law. The mission of the European Union Agency for Asylum (EUAA) is to support the implementation of the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) and promote a harmonised European approach to international protection. The Agency thus acts as a crucial resource for Member States' asylum and reception authorities, providing the tools, expertise, resources and guidance to build resilient systems and practices based on European Union (EU) standards. The objective of the EU's policy on asylum is to develop and establish a CEAS that is consistent with the values and humanitarian tradition of the EU and governed by the principle of solidarity and fair sharing of responsibility. The objectives of the EUAA are to: strengthen practical cooperation and information exchange among Member States on asylum-related matters; - promote EU law and operational standards to ensure a high degree of uniformity as regards asylum procedures, reception conditions and the assessment of protection needs across the EU; - monitor the operational and technical application of EU law and standards as regards asylum; - provide operational and technical assistance to Member States, in particular where their asylum and reception systems are under disproportionate pressure.
