The strategy for implementing the 10th European Development Fund (EDF, 2008-2013) in Niger is based on two key objectives:
Le faible niveau de développement du Niger a engendré plus d’émigration que d’immigration, au cours des 10 dernières années. La longue crise économique que le pays a connue, notamment des années 1980 et 1990, a contribué à ralentir le rythme d’accroissement du stock des immigrants internationaux du fait de la réduction des opportunités d'emploi au Niger. Toutefois, on pourrait s'attendre à une augmentation progressive des immigrants internationaux en raison de la reprise économique progressive et des perspectives économiques très prometteuses qui s'ouvrent au Niger.

The Islamic Republic of Mauritania is a Sahel-Saharan country in West Africa with an area of 1 030 000 km² and 700 km of Atlantic coastline. It has a population of 2.7 million (projection based on the census in 2000). Its main resources are fishing, iron and more recently oil and gas. In 2005 a military coup brought to an end twenty years of authoritarian rule and, at the end of the electoral process of 2006–2007, ensured a move towards democracy.
La Mauritanie a toujours été au centre d'activités migratoires importantes. Les statistiques récentes laissent voir qu'il s'agit d'un pays d'immigration important pour les pays voisins même s'il s'agit surtout d'une migration de transit. L'entrée d'étrangers en Mauritanie est aussi encouragée par des facteurs à caractère politique, juridique et social et également par sa proximité géographique à l'Europe.
Mali is a landlocked country in the Sahel, with an estimated population of 12.7 million, which is growing at a rate of 3% per year, excluding large-scale migration. It is ranked 175th out of 177 countries according to the UNDP's 2006 Human Development Index but has experienced a slow but steady increase in its HDI over the past 15 years. Located in the middle of a sub-region racked by conflict, Mali restored democracy 15 years ago. Malian law guarantees human rights, and the principles of the rule of law are respected.
L'augmentation du chômage et les conditions économiques difficiles sont les principaux facteurs de l'émigration au Mali. En raison de sa situation géographique, le Mali est également un pays de transit.
Les conséquences de l'émigration malienne sont à la fois négatives avec la fuite des cerveaux et positives avec les transferts de fonds envoyés en direction des ménages et des investissements productifs. Les retombées positives de la migration malienne sont optimisées à travers des programmes de développements qui favorisent les transferts des compétences des migrants qualifiés.
Since the crisis of 2002, Madagascar has enjoyed relative political stability across the whole island. 2006 saw the start of a new electoral cycle, beginning in December with the presidential elections. To ensure that the elections took place in the best possible conditions, the international community, with the EU in the forefront, provided strong support in the preparations for voting, which proceeded in a calm and orderly manner.
