NOT MOPING, BUT MOOPING (short thread)

Farewell Migrating Out Of Poverty: 10 yrs of exceptional research.

🐣joining @DFID_RED_GCSD in 2014 I became DFID #SeniorResponsibleOwner (SRO) for MOOP & learnt loads about rsrch, partnership, policy uptake.

some reflections...
1.A CONTINUUM: NOT BINARY

Quant+qual rsrch in Asia/Africa/MENA showed
- dynamic continuum between licit & illicit migration;
- agency & exploitation within a single migrant journey;

Debunked simplistic policies that see migrants as <either> wholly innocent <or> wholly bad.
2.MIGRATION INDUSTRY

MOOP drilled deep into migration industries, focusing on specific routes, understanding very complex relations between migrants & brokers, intermediaries & smugglers who facilitate journeys.

Trust, faith, risk, care, deceit. On repeat.
