The media and prevailing policy discourses convey an increasingly apocalyptic image of the massive outflows of desperate Africans fleeing poverty and war at home. The migrants themselves are commonly depicted as victims recruited by "merciless" and "unscrupulous" traffickers and smugglers. However, and notwithstanding the very real increase in regular and irregular West African migration towards Europe over the past decade, available empirical evidence dispels most of these assumptions. This study tries to achieve a more empirically and quantitatively founded understanding of the nature, scale and recent evolution of irregular West African migration to the Maghreb and Europe. Furthermore, this study evaluates how policies to manage trans-Saharan and trans-Mediterranean migration have affected current migration patterns. This research would not have been possible without the funding received from the European Union, and this support from the European Union for the Programme for the Enhancement and Support of Dialogue and Management of Western African Irregular and Transit Migration in the Maghreb is being gratefully acknowledged.

Trapped inside lorries or huddled aboard unseaworthy boats, irregular African migrants make for troubling headlines in western media, fueling fever pitch fears of an impending "African exodus" to Europe. Despite the increasing, albeit sensational, attention irregular migration attracts on both sides of the Mediterranean, little is known about what shapes and influences the lives of these Africans before, during, and after their “migratory projects.” By privileging migrants' narratives and drawing on evidence-based field research from different disciplinary backgrounds, the volume demystifies and dislodges many common assumptions about the human ecology of irregular African migration to Europe, arguably one of the most widely debated, yet least understood, phenomenon of our time.

This book explores the crucial political and diplomatic issue of migration, which over the past decade, has become a central theme in relations between Africa and Europe. It discusses the diverse perspectives of African and European actors on migration and presents a more just and sustainable migration governance agenda, against the backdrop of the more detailed reflections on the key policy priorities, drivers, regional dynamics, and actors influencing African–EU migration. By providing an insight into the complexities and challenges of Africa–Europe relations with regard to migration governance, this book aims to generate an understanding about the disparities within this policy field to work towards more common ground and long-term policy solutions.

Research on West African migration has tended to focus on specific 'crisis migration' issues, such as trafficking, international refugee flows or irregular migration to Europe. This reflects rather Eurocentric policy priorities, since these forms of West African migration are actually relatively small in comparison with intra-regional migration. Indeed, for every 20 migrants who board trains and buses to West African destinations, only one will try to get on a boat to Europe. Therefore, the paper will focus on the migration from poorer to richer zones within the sub-region, specifically the composition of flows as well as ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States) policy measures for mobility facilitation. Furthermore, the paper outlines future challenges and possibilities for West African migration, with West African nation states having experienced a demographic shock, high unemployment, and thus increased mobility pressures (both intra- and extra-regional). The analysis leads to a conclusion of why the European Union - based on a developmental perspective - should also be concerned with 'conventional' intraregional migration in West Africa.

As part of the European Union’s comprehensive approach to the migration crisis, the Directorate General for Migration and Home Affairs (DG Home) commissioned Optimity Advisors and Seefar to strengthen the evidence based on communications for migration in West Africa and the Central Mediterranean route, as well as information gathering by migrants and asylum seekers travelling from West Africa to Europe. The study findings will support the development of a strategic communications campaign aimed at influencing migratory choices in countries of origin and transit. A mixed methods study was designed to address the research questions. Fieldwork was carried out between May and July 2017: - Review of the literature on migration and people smuggling from West Africa and through the Central Mediterranean route. - A quantitative survey of 1,053 ‘potential’ migrants in Senegal, Cote d’Ivoire, Gambia , Guinea, Mali, and Nigeria. - Qualitative in-depth interviews with 85 West African migrants in transit in Agadez, Niger and in Libya - Sabha, Bani Walid, Zuara, Sabratha. - Qualitative in-depth interviews with 30 returnees from Europe and Libya or Niger. - Qualitative in-depth interviews with 15 Malians who had considered irregular migration but changed their plans, conducted in Bamako and Mopti. - Social media and online analysis using automated and manual searches of social media and online sources based on key words and phrases present in migrant interviews. Researchers noted that with more time and resources, more sophisticated APIs can be utilised, allowing access and analysis of a greater volume of data. - The social media analysis included 10 additional short interviews in Mali13 to further investigate the use of social media and online information in decisions around irregular migration. These qualitative insights were designed as a case study to give some contextual understanding to quantitative findings. The findings of the report are shaped around evidence of 1) the kind of messages that influence migratory behaviour, namely how migrants make decisions to migrate, and 2) the expectations of migration versus the reality; and 3) the sources of trusted information that shape decision-making, the channels by which it reaches migrants and potential migrants, and finally 4) the specific role of social media.
