MIREM
Return Migration to the Maghreb
The "Collective Action to Support the Reintegration of Return Migrants in their Country of Origin", henceforth the MIREM project, was created in December 2005, thanks to the financial support of the European Union and the European University Institute.
The main objective of the MIREM project resolves around a more in-depth consideration of the challenges linked to return migration as well as its impact on development. Analyses and user-friendly tools are provided to understand further the impact of return migration on the Maghreb countries. These are aimed at identifying the factors inherent in the returnees’ migratory experience, as well as those that are external to it, which shape their patterns of reintegration, as well as their opportunities to participate in the development of the Maghreb countries (Algeria, Morocco, and Tunisia).
The dissemination of the MIREM outcomes among migration and development stakeholders in the EU and the Maghreb is also a key objective designed to facilitate a constructive dialogue, through the concrete exploitation of the produced data.
