Sahel-Maghreb Policy Engagement
Situation
Migration, transnational criminal networks and state fragility in the Sahel-Maghreb are becoming an increasing challenge for EU and an effective policy response is needed.
Solution
Together with the Danish Institute for International Studies we have established a research platform with experts from EU, US and the Sahel-Maghreb region to provide ongoing policy inputs to the Danish MFA.
Outcome
An evidence-based policy addressing the root causes of migration, state fragility and transnational crime building on scalable, local-level interventions.
