  • Free Movement Under ECOWAS

    Free Movement Under ECOWAS

    Promoting integration through mobility: Free movement under ECOWAS Paper prepared by: Aderanti Adepoju, Alistair Boulton and Mariah Levin. Disclaimer: Though UNHCR commissioned this paper and UNHCR offices in West Africa contributed to its preparation through the provision of relevant information on country legislation and fees charged for ECOWAS residence permits, the views represented in the paper are those of the authors. Similarly, while the authors wish to thank ECOWAS for its cooperation in the preparation of the paper, in particular Mr. N’Faly Sanoh, Principal Programme Officer for Immigration, the paper is not an ECOWAS document and does not purport to provide official ECOWAS policy. 1 Purpose of paper This paper examines the main elements and limitations of the ECOWAS free movement protocols, evaluates the degree of the protocols’ implementation in ECOWAS member states and identifies their utility to refugees from ECOWAS countries residing in other ECOWAS countries. It suggests that the protocols constitute a sound legal basis for member states to extend residence and work rights to refugees with ECOWAS citizenship residing in their territories who are willing to seek and carry out employment. It briefly describes current efforts to assist Sierra Leonean and Liberian refugees to achieve the legal aspects of local integration through utilization of ECOWAS residence entitlements in seven countries in West Africa. The paper concludes with a number of recommended next steps for further action by both UNHCR and ECOWAS. The ECOWAS Treaty Seeking to promote stability and development following their independence from colonial rule, countries in the West African sub-region determined to embrace a policy of regional economic and cultural integration.
