- Abstract
- Frontex plays a crucial role in protecting human rights through its direct contact with migrants. This study examines how Frontex describes risks to migrants and how this description has changed over the past decade. The study analyses three of Frontex's annual risk analysis reports through a qualitative content analysis with a theoretical framework on human security. The results show that Frontex highlights risks for migrants, especially those related to distress and indignity in situations such as human trafficking and risky journeys across the sea. It also displays that developments over the last ten years have resulted in a wider inclusion of different types of risks, but that a low frequency of mentions of risks for migrants has... (More)

The study underlines the need for a deeper understanding of the responsibility for migrants' safety. Despite Frontex's official commitment, the study shows a lack of representation of migrants' security needs in their reports, pointing to challenges in integrating human rights into Frontex's operations.

- Abstract (Swedish)
- Frontex spelar en avgörande roll för att skydda mänskliga rättigheter genom sin direkta kontakt med migranter. Denna studie undersöker hur Frontex beskriver risker för migranter och hur denna beskrivning har förändrats under det senaste decenniet. Studien analyserar tre av Frontex årliga riskanalysrapporter genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys med en teoretisk ram om mänsklig säkerhet. Resultaten visar att Frontex framhäver risker för migranter, särskilt de som rör nöd och ovärdighet i situationer som människohandel och riskfyllda resor över havet. Det framkommer även att utvecklingen under de senaste tio åren har resulterat i en bredare inkludering av olika typer av risker, men att en låg frekvens av omnämnanden av risker för migranter...

Det framkommer även att utvecklingen under de senaste tio åren har resulterat i en bredare inkludering av olika typer av risker, men att en låg frekvens av omnämnanden av risker för migranter förblivit relativt konstant över tid. Studien understryker behovet av en fördjupad förståelse för ansvaret för migranters säkerhet. Trots Frontex officiella engagemang visar studien på en bristande representation av migranters säkerhetsbehov i deras rapporter, vilket pekar på utmaningar för att integrera mänskliga rättigheter i Frontex verksamhet.
