Briefings and situation updates by host State authorities

Where possible, host State authorities can provide regular briefings on the development and scope of a crisis, associated threats, available assistance, status of search and rescue operations, and other pertinent information on the crisis or migrants to consular officials, private sector actors, international organizations, and civil society. These briefings can take different forms, including:

• Public meetings and briefings;
• Direct engagement with consular authorities of States of origin;
• Operational coordination meetings with key stakeholders, including international organizations and civil society;
• Web-based updates and other virtual communications.
