Migration from Zimbabwe: Numbers, needs, and policy options

On 13 November 2007 CDE hosted a workshop on the migration of Zimbabweans to South Africa. CDE took this initiative because it had become clear from media reports that increased migration flows from Zimbabwe were exacerbating and dramatising already existing inadequacies of regional migration management. By staging the workshop, and distributing this publication based on its proceedings, CDE hopes to broaden and inform the policy debate not only on the short-term pressures of crisis-driven movement of people out of Zimbabwe, but on the wider and longer-term issues of immigration policy in South Africa.
