The EFFEXT project team are organising their final workshop in collaboration with the Department of Social Anthropology at Addis Ababa University. 

The workshop will take place over two days: 2 and 3 December 2024. 

The first day is an academic workshop for invited guests

Day two comprises a day of policy and research dialogue at the Hilton Hotel, Addis Ababa. In the workshop, Ways forward in African Migration Governance, participants will reflect on the effects of EU externalisation policies on Africa and the Middle East and will consider how African countries fit into global migration agendas.
