Summary/Abstract: Irregular migration from Africa through the Sahel towards Europe has increased significantly in the last decade. Migration and migration management is no longer perceived as just a humanitarian issue but has become an integral part of the European Union’s foreign and security policy. Although the EU has used its power of a large donor to influence local migration management in the Sahel, it will have to calibrate its policy in such a way that it better responds to the needs of the local populations and does not create “invisible walls”.
