A presentation and discussion of scenarios of implemented and enhanced migration legislation and policies in the Horn of Africa and Yemen.

This discussion paper seeks to emphasise that the implementation of existing legislation and expanding migration-related policy in the Horn of Africa region would have a wide array of outcomes – many of which might be judged to be positive compared with the current range of unresolved and contested issues relating to the mixed migration phenomenon.

This first RMMS Discussion Paper illustrates that there may be more options towards a positive and inclusive approach to mixed migration instead of positions that might perpetuate and exacerbate the current problematic.
