This paper addresses the issues of migration and poverty using the example of the Migrant Crisis that the European Union has faced since 2015. Poverty is most commonly defined as a state in which an individual lacks sufficient resources for daily living. However, poverty is a much broader concept that, in addition to a lack of essential resources, can also encompass other dimensions such as the social dimension, which relates to people and interpersonal relationships, and the cultural dimension, which involves the risk of exposure to stigmatization and limited access to certain rights by others. Thus, it is a multidimensional problem. The Migrant Crisis, rooted in the so-called Arab Spring, has resulted in one of the largest waves of migration to Europe in history. A significant number of people, fleeing war, political persecution, poverty, and in search of a better life, sought refuge in the countries of the European Union. Upon arrival in EU countries, migrants face numerous challenges that exacerbate poverty and hinder integration. This paper illustrates how issues such as access to employment, healthcare, education, and housing, along with an insecure environment and discrimination, contribute to increased poverty among migrants and refugees. It also provides examples of good practices in EU countries and offers recommendations for reducing poverty among migrants.
