Most of West African migration is intra-regional (86% i.e. 7.5 million people). The remaining 1.2 million are dispersed between North America and Europe. Heated political debates and media reports distort statistical realities. While humanitarian and security aspects should not be overlooked, the focus is on human mobility in terms of development and dialogue concerning host, transit and departure countries. To address the challenges of globalisation, policies should seek a co-ordinated response to the demands of the Economic Partnership Agreement and the European and African demographic dynamics. This publication contributes to the Euro-African dialogue initiated at the Rabat Conference in July 2006: it reviews migration policies in the main OECD countries receiving West African migrants and analyses the recent discussions within Europe. This report lists common approaches undertaken in Europe, Africa and West Africa and aims to shed light on decision makers' strategic thinking. It provides the greater public with an objective understanding of this recent dynamic
