According to CRPM officials, these findings are not criticisms, but rather a basis for clear-eyed and constructive dialogue. The project is based on the belief that “no country can address the complexity of migration challenges alone”.

The CRPM’s objective is to share experiences and adapt solutions.

For Senegal, the results of the study are expected to strengthen the Mécanisme National d’Orientation des Migrants de Retour (MNO) or National Referral Mechanism for Returning Migrants. Mobilising stakeholders has already led to the adoption of Standard Operating Procedures, demonstrating the country’s commitment to inclusive, coherent migration governance centred on respect for human rights. The two-day workshop programme will alternate between presentations, round tables and participatory workshops, with the clear ambition of ensuring that these exchanges generate practical and operational lessons for countries to improve their return and reintegration policies.
