Summary/Abstract: Morocco occupies a strategic position in the northwest of the continent as a gateway from African countries to Europe - it is a main entry point for both irregular migrants and refugees and asylum seekers. As such, it has been over the last decades both a transit country for these populations hoping to cross the Strait of Gibraltar to one of the European countries and increasingly a country of settlement for a growing number of refugees and asylum seekers.
