The Compass Congress comprises both a scientific meeting to share knowledge, joint working sessions and networking between public entities, and the preparation of a subsequent publication that will serve as the initial basic analysis document for the development of the Project.
The thematic discussion will explore crucial aspects such as the state organisation of migratory movements, training processes for migrants, evaluating training and labour demand in host societies, accurate information on safe migration processes, and communication and awareness-raising on both sides.
Our aim is to understand and comprehensively address the challenges related to migration in the region, identifying the actors involved, detecting good practices, observing shortcomings and proposing innovative solutions to facilitate the management of regular migration in the cooperation area covering the Canary Islands, Gambia, Mauritania and Senegal will enable us to activate different mechanisms that can be successfully established in the short and long term, promoting international collaboration and the well-being of migrant populations and host communities.
