- asylum: strengthening and developing the Common European Asylum System (CEAS);
- legal migration and integration: supporting legal migration to EU Member States in line with the labour market needs and the effective integration of non-EU nationals;
- return: enhancing fair and effective return strategies, which contribute to combating irregular migration , with an emphasis on sustainability and effectiveness of the return process;
- solidarity: making sure that EU Member States which are most affected by migration and asylum flows can count on solidarity from other EU Member States, while fully respecting the rights and principles enshrined in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
2. The Fund also provides financial resources for the activities of the European Migration Network (EMN).
