Details

Dr. Fargues will discuss migration levels and trends in the world, and particularly in the EU. He will also illustrate the main migration challenges facing the EU such as: demographic depression, sustaining EU’s economic competitiveness, containing irregular migration, and integrating migrants into society. The demographic challenges which threaten Europe are reflected in Europe’s size, wealth, and social contract. Hence Dr. Fargues will shed light on the policies taken so as to decrease these challenges.
