Distressing photos and headlines dominate front pages, and politicians stoke negative narratives about migration.

Key Points: 
  • Distressing photos and headlines dominate front pages, and politicians stoke negative narratives about migration.
  • Also popular is the “cash for migration control” approach, turning countries on the edges of Europe into, effectively, “border guards”.
  • One example is the EU’s recent deal with Tunisia, promising €150 million (£128 million) to boost Tunisia’s migration control efforts.
  • But there is not much consensus on what the root causes of migration actually are, and little evidence to show that addressing them actually reduces migration.

Tackling the root causes

  • But which ones are the most important drivers for people to take the enormous step of leaving home for somewhere new?
  • The problem in migration policymaking – which often relies on intuition and guesswork, rather than evidence – is a scatter-gun approach which lists a whole range of issues as root causes.
  • Corruption in hospitals, schools and police forces can be signs of low pay, inadequate management and a lack of accountability.
  • Tackling corruption, therefore, can improve lives and strengthen people’s confidence to build their futures locally, rather than seeking opportunities elsewhere.

Aid and migration control

  • Tackling the root causes of migration is not an easy, short-term fix to prevent migration.
  • Governments allocating aid must separate this from the issue of migration, so that this money can be channelled into what it’s actually meant for: addressing economic, humanitarian, political and security issues.
