The objective of this study is to
provide a long-term perspective for the ongoing policy
dialogue on the management of labor migration in Europe and
the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries. It is
organized as follows. Chapter one puts the report and
migration in the context of the economic and social
development in MENA countries. Chapter two provides the
historical context of MENA migration patterns and an
overview of the presence and skill characteristics of
migrants in Organization for Economic Co-operation and
Development (OECD) countries today. This chapter also
discusses the potential for insourcing, that is, migration
of jobs into the region as an alternative or complement to
labor migration. Chapter three analyzes the demand and
supply framework for migration, the determinants of
migration patterns, and the potential demand for labor in
the European Union (EU), and the characteristics and trends
of MENA labor supply. Chapter four looks to the worldwide
impact of demographic and labor force developments in the
decades ahead and their implications on labor and job
mobility. The chapter analyzes the likely population and
labor force growth in Europe and MENA, the challenges this
growth poses, and the scope for demographic arbitrage
between the two regions. This chapter provides the basis for
the fifth and concluding chapter. Chapter five covers the
institutional setup and the various economic and social
protection policies and practices worldwide that have a
strong and positive bearing on migration flows and presents
a conceptual framework on both the labor and job sending and
receiving sides that can be used by policy makers to
articulate, defend, and implement a collaborative approach
