MAFE project aims at overcoming this lack of understanding by filling a gap in data availability on African international migration. The project collected data on the characteristics and behaviour of migrants from Senegal, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Ghana, which together account for over a quarter of all African migration, to Europe (Belgium, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and the UK). These data allow to study not only migration as a one-way flow from Africa to Europe, but also return migration, circulation and transnational practices. Four key subjects are explored: patterns of migration, determinants of migration, migration and development, migrations and families. Because migration is not only determined by the individual and the family levels, the MAFE project also collected data on the national level. These data constitute the MAFE Contextual Database and are presented in this study. The database consists of about 100 indicators covering the 9 MAFE countries about domains such as demography, economics, unemployment, education, political context. These data was collected using international databases (e.g., Eurostat, World Bank, Demographic Health Surveys, OECD). They can be used to describe the socio-demographic, economic and political contexts of countries of origin and countries of destination. They could also be combined to MAFE survey datasets in statistical (multilevel) analyses.","contacts":[{"name":"DataLab","affiliation":"INED (SES)","email":"datalab@ined.fr"}],"citation":"In any work emanating from research based on the MAFE Contextual Database, I will acknowledge the database.
