This publication presents contributions by international experts on various aspects of West African migration. It provides a contrasting perspective to current debates which essentially focus on security issues. This rather non-institutional approach promotes a constant dialogue based on analyses of the actual situation: the authors encourage ""win-win"" mobility for all parties involved (Europe, North Africa and West Africa), whether it be a host, transit or departure country.
