4. Communicating about irregular migration

In 2017, communication was at the heart of strategies aimed at preventing irregular migration and at dealing effectively with the everyday situations that might arise in border crossings.

In Niger, a team of experts from Ireland and Mali selected by MIEUX are supporting the Ministry of Youth and Sports and NGO GRASPI (Reflection and Action Group to Support the Immigration Phenomenon) in designing a Practical Guide on Migration and Youth with a view to increasing awareness about the dangers of irregular migration, and alternative legal migration channels and reintegration opportunities. Keen to know more? Read the experts’ impressions about the Action in English and French.

In Moldova, we have assisted the Border Police Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in communicating more effectively with civil society on irregular migration. Our teams of experts and the Moldovan administration will jointly develop a communication training toolkit that will be launched in 2018.
