MUST BE ELIGIBLE TO RESIDE/WORK IN EU/GREECE
About Mobile Info Team
Mobile Info Team is determined to work towards a future where people on the move in Greece have fair
access to asylum and are treated with the respect their humanity deserves. We do this by providing
people on the move with vital information, clarification and assistance for the entire duration of their
asylum procedure.
We provide support in several ways:
Through the provision of general information on our website and Facebook page, people on the
move are kept accurately informed about new developments and changes to the Greek asylum
system, integration measures, family reunification procedures and more.
The provision of individual information offers people on the move access to tailored information
regarding their specific situation. We respond to any questions they may have, communicating
through Facebook messenger, WhatsApp, email and during our twice-weekly in-person
information sessions in 5 languages – Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, English and French.
Our full-time lawyer and senior caseworkers also provide individual in-depth case support to
individuals whose legal issues are particularly complex and necessitate special attention and the
allocation of further resources.
We advocate for the rights of people on the move, by collecting testimonies, publishing
reports, and engaging with other actors in order to put the protection and promotion of human
rights on the European political agenda and change key obstacles faced by asylum seekers and
refugees in Greece.
