AMI Work Package

MADAR Network partner organisation AMI (led by Prof. Mehdi Lahlou) conducted an in-depth analysis of Moroccan migration laws and policies since 2003 as part of a MADAR funded Work Package. The researchers also carried out one hundred interviews with relevant stakeholders in four regions of Morocco. The research took place between 2021 and 2022.

Scoping Study: Support and Migration in Morocco

In 2021, MADAR commissioned a scoping study exploring migration, humanitarian protection, and acts of solidarity in Morocco.

The research, which was carried out between November 2021 and March 2023, consisted of 28 semi-structured interviews, a focus group and three in-depth case-studies across multiple sites in Morocco. The analysis of the findings are articulated within a report and a series of blog posts for the wider public. As a scoping study, the project has also outlined a number of important issues to shape future research on the topic.
