In Europe, many people are afraid of reporting the crimes they suffer.

They are people with irregular migration status who do not report crimes they suffer fearing that this will trigger disciplinary proceedings that could cause their expulsion.

The Safe Reporting project wants to put a spotlight on this and promote mechanisms to guarantee equality in the access to justice in the European Union countries.
