Supporting a Stable and Durable Regional Security Environment in North Africa

London, United Kingdom

While Europe is struggling with one of its worst migrant crisis in modern times, government officials, policy-makers, and the international community are increasingly urged to look at other strategies to tackle this increasingly pressing humanitarian and security dilemma. Controversial methods of closing down the borders and deporting illegal enterers are just not enough to deal with the reality of the push factors that represent the true motives behind these migration flows. With development, stability and security increasingly seen as being interconnected, this conference series will explore the economic, political and security challenges to Africa and ask whether it is time for Europe and the UK following the Brexit, to treat Africa as more than simply a security issue to be managed.
