Updated version of the EMN Asylum and Migration Glossary

European Commission issued an updated version of the EMN Asylum and Migration Glossary which improves comparability by enabling a common understanding and use of terms and definitions relating to asylum and migration. The Glossary draws on a variety of sources, primarily those given in the EU asylum and immigration acquis, and makes these available in the majority of Member State languages. The Glossary has subsequently been used to develop an EMN Thesaurus, which will permit the structured documenting and searching of documents.
