TunisiaTunisia: EU takes part in conference on inclusive migration governance in North Africa
The Academia Conference II entitled “Towards an Inclusive Migration Governance in North Africa” took place on 23-24 July in Tunis, Tunisia. The event was co-organised by the International Centre for Migration Policy Development (ICMPD) together with the EU Delegation to Libya and the Libyan Government of National Accord’s National Team for Border Security and Management.
The objective of this conference was to debate the state of play of research on migration issues in North Africa, while keeping a particular interest on Libya, Saharan Africa and Europe, given their roles in the configuration of migration flows in the region, as the main migrant origin – transit – and destination areas.
The event gathered around 80 participants, including African and European researchers and experts, representatives of institutions embassies, international and non-governmental organisations, as well as from the private sector. All participants are working on different aspects in the field of migration in Africa with a particular interest in migration knowledge production and dissemination.
ICMPD is supporting initiatives that promote research to guide policy makers in understanding challenges and seizing opportunities. Subsequently, the conference was also meant to be a laboratory of ideas to inspire and guide future reflection and research in North Africa, especially with the eminent launch of the North AfricA Migration Academic Network (NAMAN).
