network of support in solidarity with migrants and against the inhuman European migration-policy.
At the website you will find a guide for the freedom of movement which describes legal advices, rights, free access to essential needs and a memory of migrants struggles in Spain.
The guide is made for the cities Sevilla, Malaga, Madrid and Barcelona but the general information is useful in the whole country. Unfortunately the guide is not updated but many laws are still the same (in English, Spanish and French language).

Website by lawyers which explains the steps of getting a regulation, working permission, family-reunification, etc. (in Spanish language).

Institutions in the whole country in different cities:

Cruz roja
they stay in nearly every town and offer basic assistance (food, clothes, medical help, registration in local bureau, flats,..) but they also support the government line in convincing people to an “voluntary return”.
