As people fleeing conflict and poverty continue to die on land and sea attempting to reach safety, governments must expand the provision of safe and regular pathways of migration, particularly for people in need to come to Europe, including humanitarian visas, resettlement, community sponsorship and family reunification. Governments must urgently combat the frequently hidden emergency of violence against women and girls, prioritizing the elimination of gender-based violence and addressing its root causes. More steps are also needed to eliminate all forms of discrimination, in law and practice. Governments must increase their emission reduction targets and implement adequate and human rights-consistent policies, including phasing out the use and production of fossil fuel through a just transition. They should also urgently scale up climate finance to lower- income countries and commit to providing additional dedicated funding for loss and damage in lower-income countries.
