Traços da política de emigração da África Subsahariana. Fluxo ou refluxo da Agenda 2030?

Abstract

Sub-Saharan Africa is one of the regions in the world with the largest migration flows to the rest of the world, especially to the European continent, not only because of the geographical proximity between the two continents, but also because of the ongoing political and military instability in Libya, which, before the fall of the Gaddafi regime, was at the center of actions aimed at containing illegal migra-tion via the Central Mediterranean as a result of bilateral cooperation instruments signed with Italy in 2008. But the political chaos in that North African country does not explain by itself the constant flows of illegal migration and the high risk of violence, human trafficking and death that African migrants go through. The absence of concerted and coordinated migration policies among African states, the lack of a mandate from the African Union for a complete and efficient management of migration flows are among the immediate factors correlated to the phenomenon. Therefore, with the present theme I bring to confront the materialization of article 10 of the Sustainable Development Goals, with particular focus on 10.7, which recommends the facilitation of orderly, safe, regular migration of human subjects, with the public policy of immigration in sub-Saharan Africa in order to see how it contributes to the success or failure of the implementation of the 2030 Agenda
