Beyond restrictions: migration & smuggling across the Mediterranean, the Atlantic & the English Channel
This study focuses on three key routes into the EU, including the Central Mediterranean route (CMR), the two major routes into Spain – the Western Mediterranean route (WMR) and the Northwest African (Atlantic route)– as well as the English Channel crossing into the United Kingdom1, to understand how migration and smuggling dynamics have shifted since 2023, as well as the impact of these shifts on people on the move.

✅ Officials cite reduced arrivals as proof that their policies work.  But as crossings decline on one route, they emerge or re-surge on others.  Arrivals decreased 2023-24 on the Western & Central Med Routes but movement surged along  Atlantic, English Channel & Eastern Med.🧵 2/7

⚠️ Poorly planned returns lead to failed reintegration.  Our research shows returnees without savings or in debt struggle most & may remigrate. Those detained before return have the hardest time reintegrating. Yet EU proposal wants to extend detention.🧵2/5
