MAFE Working Paper 24
This working paper seeks to identify the main factors underlying different propensities to migrate from Ghana to Europe, and from Europe back to Ghana, across individuals over time. It seeks to distinguish the role played by individual, household and contextual factors in increasing (or decreasing) an individual’s likelihood of migrating between Africa and Europe, rather than the specific migration rates between these two areas and their changes over time (a topic addressed in the working paper on migration patterns).
