At a special European Council meeting convened on 23 April 2015 after up to 900 migrants drowned in the Mediterranean trying to reach Europe from Africa, European Union heads of state and government agreed to increase funding for immigration and asylum policies and strengthen EU presence at sea to prevent further loss of life.

Think tanks have long urged the bloc to be bolder in tackling the problem. This note offers links to recent commentaries, studies and reports on the topic from major international think tanks and research institutes.
