1. How many immigrants enter the country illegally per year?

specific numbers regarding illegal immigration can be difficult to ascertain accurately. The number of immigrants leaving Morocco illegally can vary from year to year and is influenced by various factors, including socioeconomic conditions, political instability, and immigration policies.As of mid-year 2020, the number of emigrants from Morocco reached 3.3milions This was an increase from the previous year, when three million emigrants were registered in the country. Overall, the number of people emigrating from Morocco increased over the five-year periods examined.(ELEONORA)

2. Where do most illegal immigrants migrate to? What is their gender?

Considerable Moroccan populations can be found in France, Spain, Belgium, Italy, and the Netherlands; with smaller notable concentrations in other Arab states as well as Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada.The share of female migrants has declined from 49.4 per cent at mid-year 2000 to 48.1 per cent at mid-year 2020, whereas the proportion of male migrants grew from 50.6 per cent at mid-year 2000 to 51.9 per cent at mid-year 2020.Male migration is much higher than that of women. (ELEONORA)

Four out of ten Moroccans would emigrate if they could, according to a survey by Moroccan marketing agency Sunergia and news outlet L’economiste. Especially the young people want to migrate in order of a better future. A convoluted blend of the absence of social security and limited economic opportunities, coupled with a lack of sense of belonging, peer pressure, and an immigration mindset is what creates the desire of young Moroccans to move away from their homeland.(ELEONORA)

4. Do they integrate easily?

Moroccans and depend on several factors, including the destination country's policies, cultural differences, language barriers, and individual circumstances. Some may integrate smoothly, while others may face challenges adjusting to a new environment. Successful integration often involves a willingness to adapt, learn the language, understand local customs, and engage with the community. (ELEONORA)

5. What does your country do to help them?

Spain provides various support and assistance to Moroccan immigrants to facilitate their integration and settlement. This includes:1Legal Support

2Language Courses 3Employment Assistance 4Social Integration Programs 5Healthcare and Education Access 6Integration Policies 7Integration Policies.It's important to note that the effectiveness of these initiatives can vary based on individual circumstances, region, and specific policies in place at the time of immigration++++(ELEONORA)

6. Are there associations helping refugees? Are there celebrities taking a stand in favour of refugees?

there are numerous associations and organizations dedicated to helping refugees in various ways, including providing assistance, support, education, healthcare, legal aid, and other essential services. Some prominent international organizations include:1United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) 2International Rescue Committee (IRC) 3Doctors Without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières) 4Amnesty International 5 Save the Children 6 Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (ELEONORA)

8.Why do they want to leave their country and come to your country?

A convoluted blend of the absence of social security and limited economic opportunities, coupled with a lack of sense of belonging, peer pressure, and an immigration mindset is what creates the desire of young Moroccans to move away from their homeland. (ELEONORA)

depending on the specific country's laws, policies, and immigration system. Common steps often include obtaining a visa, meeting residency requirements, demonstrating language proficiency, passing a citizenship test, and showing proof of integration into the society. It's important to research and understand the immigration laws of the specific country you're interested in. In spain the process to become a citizen typically involves several stages. Here's a general outline:Residency,Temporary Residency,Permanent Residency,Naturalization,Language and Cultural Knowledge,Integration,Background Checks(Eleonora)

12. Are there quotas to limit legal immigration?

in September 2021, Spain does not have specific quotas to limit legal immigration. However, like many countries, Spain has immigration policies and laws in place to regulate the number and types of immigrants it admits based on its economic, social, and political considerations. (Eleonora)

13. Are illegal immigrants deported?

It depends the country.

Spain, like many other countries, has mechanisms in place to address individuals without legal immigration status.

When individuals are found to be in Spain without proper authorization or have overstayed their visas, they may face deportation or removal proceedings. The specific procedures and criteria for deportation in Spain can include factors such as immigration status, criminal record, humanitarian circumstances, and agreements with other countries. (Eleonora)

14. What are the country’s laws

15. Are there new policies to change immigration laws?

16. Are there migrants’ camps in the country? Are there detention centers?

Migrant camps, also known as refugee or migrant centers, are facilities where migrants, refugees, or asylum seekers are temporarily accommodated. These camps provide shelter, basic services, and often assistance with legal and administrative processes. The conditions and capacity of these camps can vary widely based on the country, location, and available resources ← in general (Eleonora)

17. Does the country have a history of immigration? Has your country been a host country?

18. Have there been waves of immigration? From where?

Morocco doesnt host immigrants(at least they are only few and thats why we cant find enough informatio). Instead moroccans prefer to  leave their homeland for a better quality life! The main reason of this situation is  the country's low economy. (Eleonora)

The moroccans usually megrate to spain, to italy , to france  , to belgium but also to netherlands, germany…Additionally, some Moroccans migrate to Gulf countries like the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia for work opportunities. The United States and Canada also attract a smaller number of Moroccan immigrants.(Eleonora)

1. Has anything happened recently that made immigration a burning issue?

The most important in my opinion is the asylum and refugee crisis   surge in asylum seekers or refugees due to conflicts , natural disasters etc. can draw attention to immigration policies,humanitarian efforts but also the need for

Spain:

Given its geographic proximity to Morocco, Spain has a notable population of Moroccan immigrants. Attitudes can vary, but generally, Spain has experienced immigration waves from Morocco, and policies aim to balance integration efforts while addressing concerns about immigration's impact on various societal aspects.

France:

France has a significant population of Moroccan immigrants, particularly due to historical ties and migration patterns. Moroccan immigrants often face issues related to integration, discrimination, and socioeconomic disparities. French policies aim to promote integration and combat discrimination.

Belgium:

Belgium also has a community of Moroccan immigrants. Like in other European countries, integration, access to education, employment, and combating discrimination are often key issues. Policies aim to foster social cohesion and inclusion.

Netherlands:

The Netherlands has a diverse population, including a community of Moroccan immigrants. Integration, language proficiency, and participation in society are key themes in Dutch policies aimed at immigrants, including Moroccans.

Italy:

Italy, although not as geographically close as Spain, has experienced immigration from North Africa, including Morocco. Integration, labor market access, and cultural understanding are areas of focus in Italian immigration policies.

Italian immigrants helped provide the labor for American factories and mines and helped build roads, dams, tunnels, and other infrastructure. Their work provided them a small economic foothold in American society and allowed them to provide for their families, which stood at the core of Italian-American life.Sectors with the highest number of foreign employees included agriculture (18% of the total workforce), construction (15.5%), and hotels and restaurants (15.3%). The highest rate of foreign workers was recorded in "other collective and personal services": 34.3%.

4.What does your country do to help them?

It was only during the mid-1990s that the increased salience of the migration issue led to a law to regulate migrants’ integration for the first time.

It identified key priorities and planned integration measures in the 1998-2000 period.In 2017, the Italian government adopted the National Integration Plan for Persons Entitled to International Protection, as foreseen by decree 18/2014, which transposed the EU's recast Qualification Directive (Directive 2011/95/EU). The plan, to be funded by EU and national financial resources, set out priorities for 2017-2018, including inter-religious and intercultural dialogue, language training, access to education, labour inclusion and vocational training. The main actors responsible for implementing the foreseen measures are local authorities and local public services, with the support of civil society organisations.

6.Can you find the testimony of a young refugee, whose success story became a source of inspiration?

AGRIGENTO, Italy - Feven* kept looking at her feet. The 18-year-old’s voice was a whisper amid dozens of asylum seekers at a reception center on the Italian island of Sicily. Memories of her ordeal are still fresh.

“We were sharing two toilets for 130 people. We were sleeping all together on the boat’s deck: some areas had shade, others not. We had to take turns,” she said.

“We were malnourished, though not from the days on the boat. That was a consequence of the long time we had spent in the traffickers’ hangars in Libya,” she said.

Feven is one of the lucky ones.

She was rescued on 1 August by the Open Arms rescue vessel and evacuated from the ship with 13 others to Lampedusa for medical reasons on 15 August. One hundred others, also rescued from international waters off the coast of Libya, remained on the ship for a further six days.

Her ordeal began in early 2017 when she left Eritrea as a 15-year-old. No family members accompanied her. She declined to talk about her journey to Libya or her experience during the 18 months spent there in a hangar run by traffickers. Many women in the centres have experienced violence, rape and torture for the purpose of extorting money from family members back ho“The wooden boat was stranded at sea off Libya for two days. The engine broke. There was water leaking inside the boat. The waves were so strong. We were terrified but we were coming from hell. We were not afraid to die. Then Open Arms saved us,” she said.me. Some have been killed.

7.HOW MANY NEW ASYLUM SEEKERS ARE THERE EVERY YEAR?

8.Why do they want to leave their country and come to your country?

Most of them came from Bangladesh, Pakistan and from Egypt. A total of 45,037 decisions have been made on initial applications. Around 16% of them were answered positively.Officials say a majority of migrants head to Italy for economic reasons and are therefore not eligible for asylum. Past efforts to hold migrants have largely failed, with those detained repeatedly breaking out of centres and often heading straight to wealthier northern European countries.

9. How many people ask for their nationality every year?

How many people get it?

In Italy, 52,625 applications were examined: 53% (27,385) of claims were rejected, 12% (6,161) were granted refugee status, 13% (6,770) subsidiary protection and 21% (10,865) special protection.

10. What are the rules to become a citizen?

If you legally reside in Italy for five years of residence, you can apply for permanent residence and for Italian citizenship after another five years. You need to permanently live in the country for ten years, receive income and pay taxes. By descent

11.Are there quotas to limit legal immigration?

The new law sets quotas for work permits for the next three years. In 2023, for example, Cutro aims to issue 82,000 visas. And this despite the fact that this year the business sector has already received 250,000 applications for work permits.

13. What are the country’s laws regarding immigration?

Despite the serious human rights violations perpetrated by the Libyan authorities and militias, Italy has continued to provide support to Libya to keep migrants on its territory. The Libyan authorities intercepted more than 24,000 people at sea during the year, whom they then returned to Libya, with logistical and material support from Italy.

14. Are there new policies to change immigration laws?

In December, the government adopted a decree with immediate effect designed to limit the sea rescue activities of NGOs. NGO crews now had to request a port of disembarkation and return to it after each rescue operation, limiting their ability to save more lives during an operation. They also had to determine at sea whether those rescued intended to seek asylum.

15. Are there migrants’ camps in the country? Are there detention centers?

Migrants considered illegal will be able to be held in detention centres for longer: the maximum detention period has been extended from 120 to 135 days.

The government also wants to build a "detention centre for repatriation" (CPR) in each of the country's 20 regions. There are currently 10 sites, with a total capacity of 1,500 places.

Rome has also updated its list of safe countries - those to which migrants can be returned more easily. Nigeria, Algeria, Senegal, Morocco, Tunisia and Gambia are now considered safe countries by Italy.

16. Does the country have a history of immigration? Has your country been a host country?

Have there been waves of immigration? From where?

17.  What is the country’s ideology concerning foreigners?

The Fascist regime reformed nationality law by including racist and authoritarian elements, as we have seen, but it did not touch the main criteria of acquisition and loss included in the 1912 Law. The co-ethnic attitude, that is the preferential treatment of foreigners of Italian origin concerning the preservation, acquisition and reacquisition of the status of citizen, was paradoxically much more reinforced during the republican period, even when Italy was fast becoming a country of immigration, and the political elite was well aware of this turn.

18. What are the opinions of the different political parties concerning immigration?

Is it a controversial topic for the government at the moment?

What do some people blame immigrants for?

Has anything happened recently that made immigration a burning issue?

7. Can you find the testimony of a young refugee, whose success story became a source of inspiration?

I always knew we’d have to leave Afghanistan. My older brother, Hussein, was desperately ill with a heart problem, and we were told that two places could save his life: the US and the UK. It took almost two years to reach the UK. We were robbed twice and had no food for days and we barely slept. To distract us from the horror of the moment, Hussein played the clown. We learned to join in too, bantering, messing around, trying to distract our parents. Trying to make things seem normal. For me, this isn’t a refugee story; it’s a family story. It’s a love story – three boys with a love of football, a parent who wants to sacrifice everything for their kids. Tell me which parent wouldn’t want to do that? Sadly, Hussein did pass away aged 31. But we are so grateful to the NHS for the 17 years we got with him. To honor him, I wrote the ‘Boy with two hearts’, which was turned into a play. Writing it was hard, but it means Hussein will never be forgotten.

18. What are the opinions of the different political parties concerning immigration?

Is it a controversial topic for the government at the moment?

What do some people blame immigrants for?

The Conservative party’s ‘Get Brexit Done’ and ‘Unleash Britain’s Potential’ manifesto contains a pledge to ‘fix our immigration system’.

They intend to do this primarily by introducing a ‘firmer and fairer Australian-style points-based immigration system’ so that decisions on who can come to the UK will be made ‘on the basis of the skills they have and the contribution they can make’. The Labour party’s ‘radical, hopeful…people focused’ manifesto contains a pledge to put an end to the ‘hostile environment‘. Labour’s key theme is to create a more ‘humane immigration system’. In contrast to the other parties, the Liberal Democrat manifesto outlines an ambition to revoke Article 50 of the Treaty of the European Union which would ‘Stop Brexit’. The Liberal Democrats want the UK to remain in the EU and maintain the current free movement rules.

Many of the party’s further immigration policies, included in its manifesto and detailed further on its website, focus around reform to create a ‘compassionate and effective immigration system’.

Favourable laws make it easier for foreigners to make Britain their home and take on Brtish nationality. The British Council studied how easy it was for immigrants to build their lives in the 25 European Union countries plus Norway and Switzerland. therefore, even though all political parties have different opinions about migration as well as other subjects, the country keeps a rather positive stance as far as the matter is concerned.

By this definition, immigrants experience stigma because they are constantly being labeled “foreigners” or “outsiders” and stereotyped as undocumented or criminals. This separates them and gives them a lower status than that of White Americans in a society where they have less political power.

19. Has anything happened recently that made immigration a burning issue?

An asylum seeker is an immigrant who has been forcibly displaced and might have fled their home country because of war or other factors harming them or their family. If their case is accepted, they become considered a refugee.[2] The terms asylum seeker, refugee and illegal immigrant are often confused.

1. What are the positive and negative sides of immigration?Immigration can give substantial economic benefits – a more flexible labour market, greater skills base, increased demand and a greater diversity of innovation. However, immigration is also controversial. It is argued immigration can cause issues of overcrowding, congestion, and extra pressure on public services.

1. Has Europe been a land of immigration?Immigration to Europe has a long history, but increased substantially after World War II. Western European countries, especially, saw high growth in immigration post 1945, and many European nations today (particularly those of the EU-15) have sizeable immigrant populations, both of European and non-European origin.

2. Has the USA been a land of immigrants?Immigration to the United States has been a major source of population growth and cultural change throughout much of its history. In absolute numbers, the United States has by far the highest number of immigrant population in the world, with 50,661,149 people as of 2019.[1][2] This represents 19.1% of the 244 million international migrants worldwide, and 14.4% of the United States' population. In 2018, there were almost 90 million immigrants and U.S.-born children of immigrants in the United States, accounting for 28% of the overall U.S. population.[3]

3. What rights do migrants have? What kind of obligations do they have?

4. Under international law, migrants have human rights by virtue of their humanity. International customary law and international human rights instruments are of universal application and therefore set States duties and rights of migrants. There are various other international instruments that specifically  address the protection of migrants and their rights. In addition, recent attention has been drawn to the obligations of States, under international human rights law, towards dead and missing migrants and their families (Grant, 2016).

5. Migrants access to rights may be evaluated by measuring the rights granted to migrants in principle and in practice. The former is relatively straightforward and looks at international and regional treaty ratifications by States and their national law to respect, protect and fulfil migrants’ rights, while the latter requires looking at the implementation of rights, or if migrants’ rights are actually upheld and exercised. Measuring the rights granted to migrants and their effective access in practice is limited by a lack of data, information, resources, and the large number of rights requiring evaluation.
