Dynamique des Circulations Migratoires et mobilités transfrontalières entre Guyane, Surinam, Brésil, Guyana et Haïti

Description
Ce programme interdisciplinaire s’articule autour de l’analyse des relations entre les migrations internationales et les autres formes de mobilités nationales ou transnationales, la question des langues et des identités dans la migration, les politiques migratoires et l’impact des mobilités sur le développement. Appréhendé à différentes échelles spatiales et sociales d’analyse, le terrain d’étude apparaît comme un cas exemplaire permettant de questionner les rapports nord-sud, et d’examiner la formation de nouveaux espaces transfrontaliers et transnationaux dans un monde en processus de globalisation.

MACIMIDE Global Expatriate Dual Citizenship Database

Description
The MACIMIDE Global Expatriate Dual Citizenship Dataset charts the rules that existed in near all states of the world since 1960 with regard to the loss or renunciation of citizenship after a citizen of a respective state voluntarily acquires the citizenship of another state. The central variable of the Dataset is the dualcit_cat variable. This is a categorical variable whose values may be used to interpret, in broad lines, the position of a country with regards to the expatriate dual citizenship. The dualcit_cat variable reflects what consequences the legislation and legal practice of a country attaches to the voluntary acquisition of a foreign citizenship. The value of this variable depends on a number of criteria, including whether a citizen of the reference country who voluntarily obtains a foreign citizenship automatically loses – in principle – the citizenship of the origin country, and whether a citizen of the reference country can renounce that citizenship. The value assigned to dualcit_cat reflects the position of the country on the 1st of January of the reference year. Any subsequent changes in legislation will be reflected in the dualcit_cat value of the following year and included in updated versions of the Dataset. The dualcit_binary variable is a recoding of the dualcit_cat variable. This variable can be used for broad comparisons of the dual citizenship positions around the world. The possible values reflect whether the legislation of a country, in a given reference year, provides for the automatic loss of the origin citizenship (1) or not (2). All data have been centrally collected and refer to specific provisions in national law.

World Population Policies Database

Description
Since the mid-1970s, the World Population Policies Database, last updated in 2015, provides comprehensive and up-to-date information on the population policy situation and trends for all Member States and non-member States of the United Nations. Among several areas, the database shows the evolution of government views and policies with respect to internal and international migration. The migration strand covers internal migration, immigration, emigration, and return. The Database is updated biennially by conducting a detailed country-by-country review of national plans and strategies, programme reports, legislative documents, official statements and various international, Inter-governmental and non-governmental sources, as well as by using official responses to the United Nations Inquiry among Governments on Population and Development.

Study on EU Support for Integrated Border Management in the Latin American and Caribbean Region

Principal investigator Borut Erzen (Project Coordinator), Alina Cibea (Project Team Member)
Description
The Research Team is supporting the Border Management and Visa Team in implementing the Study on EU Support for Integrated Management in the Latin American and Caribbean Region. Objective: The project aims to support the European Commission Directorate DEVCO G and other relevant EU services in preparing possible future EU assistance to the development of integrated border management in the Latin American and the Caribbean (LAC) region. Summary: Specifically, the project will carry out an independent study on the main characteristics (general features, strengths and weaknesses) and needs of the border management systems in the LAC region, as well as of the support provided so far in this area by the EU and other relevant donors. It will also provide a set of concrete recommendations on the objectives and types of activities that could be envisaged by the EU in terms of possible future support in this area in the LAC region. This support would address, in particular, the regional/sub-regional level under the DCI and also cover an analysis on possible implementation options.

UN Inquiry on population and development - International Migration

Description
The Inquiry gathers critically important data for monitoring the implementation of the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development and other international agreements, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Inquiry, mandated by the General Assembly in its resolution 1838 (XVII) of 18 December 1962, has been conducted by the Secretary-General at regular intervals since 1963. The Twelfth Inquiry consists of multiple-choice questions, organized in three thematic modules: Module I on population ageing and urbanization; Module II on fertility, family planning and reproductive health; and Module III on international migration. In 1994, Member States attending the International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo agreed that “population-related goals and policies are integral parts of cultural, economic and social development” and recommended that actions be taken “to measure, assess, monitor and evaluate progress towards meeting the goals of its Programme of Action”. The year 2019 will mark the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Cairo conference and adoption of the ICPD Programme of Action, which continues to provide crucial guidance for addressing the fundamental development challenges facing the world today. Population issues are also at the core of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted in 2015. The United Nations Inquiry among Governments on Population and Development (the “Inquiry”) gathers critically important data for monitoring the implementation of the ICPD Programme of Action and other international agreements, including the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The Inquiry, mandated by the General Assembly in its resolution 1838 (XVII) of 18 December 1962, has been conducted by the Secretary-General at regular intervals since 1963. The most recent Inquiry, the Eleventh, was implemented in 2014.
