Gaining from Migration

Towards a New Mobility System

This report presents a summary of recommendations on how we can all gain from migration. They are the result of a multi-faceted project undertaken in partnership with the European Commission to rethink the management of the emerging mobility system. New ideas, based on an exhaustive review of past policy experiences in Europe and elsewhere, are offered for policies related to labour markets, integration, development co-operation and the engagement of diasporas.

Europe will, on current trends, come to rely ever more on immigrants to balance supply and demand in labour markets, and more generally to fuel economic growth, as spelled out in the European Union’s Lisbon Agenda. International migration to Europe likewise has the potential to promote economic development in the migrants’ countries of origin, thereby serving European countries’ development co-operation objectives as well.
