Funding
In 2018 and 2019, the JT benefitted from short term funding through so-called Low Value Grants and High Value Grants from the EMPACT platform. From 2019, the JT obtained long term funding from the Internal Security Fund – Police as part of a larger consortium for the period of 1 January 2022 to 31 March 2024. For the project cycle management aspect of the funding, the Prosecutor’s Office contacted the Centre for International Legal Cooperation (CILC).
In 2024, the JT – supported by CILC – secured new funding through the Migration Partnership Facility of the International Centre for Migration Policy Development for the period 1 July 2024 to 30 April 2027.
The external funding covers costs related to, among others, travel for meetings of the JT and with external partners, staffing, expert reports and exceptional operational costs.
