European Commission Description:

 

"The Return Fund  (RF), in which all EU States except for Denmark participate, allocates EUR 676 million for the period 2008–13. Specifically, it seeks to encourage the development of cooperation between EU states and with countries of return.

 

"In this context, the Fund provides support for actions assisting returnees' reintegration processes and for activities enhancing the quality of information on voluntary return assistance and on the risks related to irregular migration. Measures co-financed by the Fund include, for example, the setting up of voluntary return and reintegration programmes, specific assistance for vulnerable returnees (e.g. unaccompanied minors) and support for innovative tools and actions supporting the sharing of best practices between EU states."
