“…In France, migrant care workers were fast-tracked for naturalization to recognize and reward the workers' commitment, solidary and generosity to the French nation state during the pandemic (Wilsher, 2020;Isaac and Elrick, 2021). Portugal offered migrants with pending cases temporary residency for the duration of the national state of emergency (Mazzilli, 2022). Italy adopted a regularization program for undocumented workers already present in the country's agriculture or domestic care sectors to stem the acute labour shortages in the agri-food industry, when the pandemic and travel restrictions prevented the arrival of many care and seasonal harvest workers from abroad (PICUM, 2020(PICUM, , 2021.…”

Despite widespread efforts to stop irregular migration, it continues; and irregular migrants remain present in societies, often finding alternative modes of inclusion. It is essential to recognise how a variety of intermediaries enable irregular migration. Between states, we can observe a complex interplay among ‘facilitating’ actors, including human smugglers, that provide services which help migrants cross borders. However, to a large extent, irregular migration is also enabled within states. Supporters act in favour of migrants and respond to their practical and social needs. Most of the help given to irregular migrants is informal, because irregular migrants most often cannot depend on help provided by public institutions. This chapter will describe the facilitation and support of border crossings, as well as the support given to irregular migrants in receiving societies.

In this chapter we remind the reader of the core questions that the study set out to address and summarise the key findings and themes which emerged and which are set out in the book. We make further observations, reflecting back to questions arising from the research literature and identify some issues for a future research agenda before setting out a series of policy recommendations for municipalities across Europe as well as for national, regional and European authorities.
