Migration in Africa: Issues, Challenges and Opportunities
Background
The subject of migration has attracted considerable attention in recent times, especially following the recent influx of migrants from different continents into Europe. Intra-African migration dominates migration flows in the African continent with a small proportion of Africans migrating to Europe. Migration, which cuts across three sustainable development goals, is found both in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and Africa’s transformative development plan, Agenda 2063, where issues of equity, poverty eradication and inclusion have been given prominence.
The event brings together a panel of experts to discuss the future of migration in Africa.
Event is open to all delegates. Time: 9h00-11h00, Date: 2nd April 2016, Venue: CR5
