Welcome to MASI – the Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland
The Movement of Asylum Seekers in Ireland was founded in October 2014 in response to the inhumane treatment of asylum seekers under the direct provision system.
We exist to promote justice, freedom and dignity for all asylum seekers.
MASI is not an NGO and is not affiliated with any political organisation. It is an independent platform for all people seeking international protection in Ireland to address any issues impacting them and come up with solutions collectively.
