Evaluating Community Sponsorship Across Europe

As part of the Share QSN project, country evaluations were conducted in Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Ireland and Spain to assess the national programmes and their impact on the wider community.

For each of the evaluations, in-depth interviews were conducted from mid-2021 to 2022 with refugees, volunteers and key stakeholders from civil society organisations and also local authorities. Coordinated by Marisol Reyes-Soto and Gabriella D’Avino, some of the researchers used a participatory approach to interview refugees.

The evaluations all provide relevant findings and key recommendations for each national context.
