All of these are a source of instability for the region & acts as a risk multiplier exacerbating pre existing vulnerabilities. Since 2015, the EU & African countries have reinforced their joint approach to migration management, improving cooperation to address irregular migration, migrant smuggling & trafficking in human beings while developing at the same time a more sustainable approach to harness the potential of migration as a fundamental driver for inclusive & sustainable development in countries of origin & transit in Africa.
