Abstract
In Morocco (and North Africa), migration is part and parcel of politics, economy, and everyday life. Morocco has a unique geographical position: situated at the westernmost edge of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, it is at the crossroads between the Maghreb, Africa, and Europe, and it is only seven miles away from Europe.
