ABOUT THE AFRICA MIGRATION REPORT POETRY ANTHOLOGY SERIES

The Africa Migration Report Poetry Anthology Series was inspired by the "Africa Migration Report: 2nd Edition" published by the African Union Commission and International Organisation for Migration in March 2024.[3]

Our call for submissions[4] is open 365 days a year because every day is Africa Day and because we would like to keep the conversation going for as long as it takes for the African migrant to be treated with dignity and respect on the continent and around the world.
