The Khartoum Process is a platform for political cooperation amongst the countries along the migration route between the Horn of Africa and Europe. It was set up at a ministerial conference on 28 November 2014 in Rome, Italy.
Description
[edit | edit source]The process aims at establishing a continuous dialogue for enhanced cooperation on migration and mobility. The Process also seeks to support member states in identifying concrete projects to address trafficking in human beings and the smuggling of migrants and other migration-related areas. Additionally, the Khartoum Process gives a new impetus to the regional collaboration between countries of origin, transit and destination regarding the migration route between the Horn of Africa and Europe.[1]
