Economic Development in Africa Report 2018

The report assesses the evidence to identify policy pathways that harness the benefits of African migration and mitigate its negative effects. It argues that African migration can play a key role in the structural transformation of the continent’s economies. Finally, this report offers new and innovative analytical perspectives, relevant for both long-term policymaking and for the design of demand-driven technical cooperation projects, with a shorter time frame and will help Governments and other stakeholders in reaching informed decisions on appropriate migration policies in the context of Africa’s regional integration process.
