Wo in Europa wohnen Migranten aus #Afrika ? In Frankreich, Spanien, Italien und UK findet sich ein großer Teil afrikanischer #Diaspora in Europa. Deutschland ist eher Ziel von Migranten aus Europa und Asien. #migrationmessenger @dgapev

„Ethisch und moralisch fragwürdig - aber ohne gute Alternative“ wäre hier der bessere Titel gewesen. Trotzdem danke @ZDF Live für das Gespräch über Migrationsabkommen und den Besuch von @NancyFaeser @BMI_Bund in #Tunesien . Meine Meinung dazu in 10 Minuten👇

This country profile I wrote for @migrationpolicy with my co-author @BAMF_Dialog has aged surprisingly well, given how much was in flow back then. Explains Germany's "integration first" period (2000s-2015). Shout-out also to @zara_rab whose editing tips I still miss dearly!

It’s been five years since Angela Merkel declared Germany would open its doors to refugees, That decision, which allowed in more than 1 million people, was part of a larger trend, as @VRietig & Andreas Müller explained at the time @dgapev @BAMF_Dialog

🇩🇪 should establish a new #resettlement coalition with🇺🇸& Europe, & experiment w other pathways, e.g. humanitarian visas/applying from outside the EU. This is what politicians of all parties ask for: safe, legal & orderly migration to reduce pressures to migrate irregularly. 7/16

The impact on children? 1 in 5 Syrian kids (19%) attends Gymnasium (on-ramp into tertiary ed+a career), but only 1 in 10 Afghans (10%).One reason-among others-for this gap: Syrians are much likelier than Afghans to have safe legal status. 8/12 @BAMF_Dialog

A tour de force of EU migration issues by @EUHomeAffairs DG Vivi Michou, flanked by insights from @Jan___Schneider @davidjkipp @FundaTekin17 @LuRasche , Steffen Angenendt @SWPBerlin and Franck Düvell @DezimInstitut . No, we didn’t solve things. But it was an afternoon well spent.

Out now: my commentary on the new estimates of the unauthorized population in 🇩🇪. In a nutshell: We have no need to panic, but should come up with a strategy to deal with people without legal status. Two sides of the same coin: return and regularization. Link in thread 👇/1

Where do people without legal status in 🇩🇪 come from? Check out our @dgapev visual explainer for the answers. Spoiler: the variety of countries might make your head spin. It is yet another reason why cooperation on #migrant #return and #deportation is thorny and sluggish 👇

Good policy move. Protects migrants & public servants alike: „All foreigners in 🇵🇹 with pending applications will be treated as permanent residents until at least July 1 to ensure migrants have access to public services during the #coronavirus outbreak.“

Having moved to Berlin from DC two summers ago, I share ⁦ @Julie_C_Smith ⁩ ‘s frustrations - although I could not have put them as eloquently. A good read for the Germanophiles among you.

Ah least five Afghans 🇦🇫 deported from Germany 🇩🇪 years ago have returned - using legal labor migration channels. This, yet again, fans the demand that Germany should deport more selectively, and give a path to legal status to more people in #Duldung .
