  • 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.

  • Fostering Free Movement of Persons in West Africa: Achievements, Constraints, and Prospects for Intraregional Migration
    Fostering Free Movement of Persons in West Africa: Achievements, Constraints, and Prospects for Intraregional Migration Aderanti Adepoju* ABSTRACT Migration in West Africa is strongly influenced by poverty, depressed economies, and socio-political crises. The influx of migrants into the cities and irregular migrations across national borders in search of decent living conditions reflect a crisis of development. To understand the dynamics of these diverse migrations, we focus on causes and changing configurations of emerging migratory flows; autonomous female migration, trafficking in women and children; intraregional migration as alternatives to “illegal” migration to the North; progress and constraints in creating a borderless subregion and fostering intraregional migration. The abolition of the mandatory residency permit, introduction of Brown Card travel certificates, and the elimination of the ubiquitous border formalities are aimed at facilitating intraregional movements of persons. Progress was constrained by multiple cooperation groupings and memberships, conflicting objectives, inconsistent political support, growing national identity, depressed economies, and xenophobia against “foreigners”. We suggest that governments should align national employment laws with regional treaties, protect the rights of migrant workers, promote pro-poor employment strategies, adopt variable speed approach in implementing migration policies, and enforce migrants’ rights of residence and establishment. * Human Resources Development Centre, University of Lagos, Nigeria.

  • Bad Neighbourhood Effect’ of Civil War Next Door1
    ARTICLES State Resilience in Guinea: Mitigating the ‘Bad Neighbourhood Effect’ of Civil War Next Door1 Mamadou Diouma Bah University of Waikato Abstract This article addresses the question of how to sustain domestic peace in a regionalized conflict zone, with special reference to the Republic of Guinea. From 1990-2008, Guinea was surrounded by six countries experiencing political unrest and/or civil war. The outbreak of these wars and the influx of refugees presented a threat to Guinea’s stability. This article explains how the Guinean state, despite these unfavourable conditions, known as the ‘bad neighbourhood effect,’ remained resilient during these decades. It concludes that the measures taken by Guinea and its international partners successfully mitigated the contagion effects of Guinea’s neighbouring conflicts. This is in contrast to findings in recent quantitative studies where the ‘bad neighbourhood effect’ is strongly linked with the onset of large-scale civil conflicts. Introduction “Whenever a conflict breaks out within a region, there is good reason to fear that it may spread to neighbouring states… The arms that flow into a country with a civil conflict can also move outward to its neighbours.”2 Recent quantitative studies on theories of contemporary civil war identify several key variables as significant triggers of civil war onset.3 One of 1 This article omits discussion of recent events in Guinea following the death of President Conté in December, 2008. The author wishes to acknowledge the input of Dr. Alan Simpson from the Department of Political Science and Public Policy at the University of Waikato, Professor Luc Reychler from the Center of Peace Research and Strategic Studies at the University of Leuven, and Nicole Stanbridge.
