"Regional integration in relation to migration in Africa, i.e. promoting free movement and labour migration, and countering forced migration, could greatly improve the lives of the 16 million regular and irregular migrants estimated to be living in Africa. During the period since the Abuja Treaty was signed in 1991, the African Union has developed a number of policy frameworks for regional integration in migration. The primary purpose of this paper is to summarise recent developments in the African Union’s (AU) policy on migration." (Quoted from Paper)
