Description du projet
La contribution des immigrants africains à leur pays d’origine
La crise migratoire mondiale actuelle représente un défi majeur pour le développement, alors que des millions de personnes traversent les frontières en quête de meilleures perspectives économiques, de libertés politiques et de stabilité sociale. Soutenu par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie, le projet MIGTRIBUTION examine comment les immigrés africains en Europe peuvent contribuer à la stabilité et à la qualité institutionnelle de leur pays d’origine, en mettant l’accent non plus sur la fuite des cerveaux mais sur le gain institutionnel. Les travaux tiendront compte de différents facteurs tels que les envois de fonds, le transfert de connaissances, l’investissement et l’influence sur la gouvernance et la qualité institutionnelle. Le projet recourra à des techniques de collecte de données quantitatives et qualitatives, ainsi qu’à des analyses comparatives, afin de formuler des recommandations politiques.
Objectif
"The ongoing global migration crisis has emerged as an important development challenge of our time, with millions of individuals crossing borders in search of better economic prospects, political liberties, & social stability. This research project examines how African European immigrants can contribute positively to their home countries' stability and institutional quality. The study highlights a transition from ""brain drain"" to ""institutional gain,"" where the potential benefits a country can derive from the skills & knowledge acquired by individuals who have migrated and gained experience & expertise abroad outweigh the loss of talent & skills shortages due to emigration. This research aims to rigorously explore and critically evaluate the potential impact African immigrants in Europe may have on the economic & political institutions development of their countries of origin. It aims to delve into the intricate dynamics that shape this relationship, focusing on the diaspora’s engagements’ quantitative & qualitative contributions. We seek to provide a comprehensive analysis of the myriad ways these migrants might be contributing to or detracting from the development of their home countries, considering factors including, but not limited to, remittances, knowledge transfer, investment, and influence on governance & institutional quality. We will conduct our research using quantitative & qualitative data collection techniques and diverse methods of empirical analysis. One subproject involves a cross-country study covering several African and European nations. Additionally, we will conduct case studies and comparative analyses focusing on diaspora communities from selected African countries that have demonstrated noticeable influences on their home countries' political & economic landscapes. We use mixed methods to examine these nations' unique circumstances. The study outcomes will be used to offer suggestions for both European and African policymakers.
