3^rd Session

Highlight the role of the Media in the dissemination of credible information related to the dangers of illegal migration. For there is evidence to suggest that the impetus to migrate is often based on ill-founded perceptions of the conditions and opportunities that exist in other countries, as well as a limited awareness of the dangers associated with irregular migration. Information programmes in countries of origin help to dispel such misconceptions, discouraging people from moving by irregular and clandestine means and informing potential migrants about any regular immigration opportunities that exist, including possibilities of labor mobility.

Credible information disseminated and made available to potential Egyptian migrants has played an important role in reducing irregular migration towards Italy.  Recent figures released by Italian authorities show that the number of irregular Egyptian migrants towards Italy has decreased.
