Africa is commonly regarded as a "continent on the move" in
scholarly observation and mass media reportage. Movement is seen
primarily in the direction of Europe. Yet the public debate is
characterized by two misconceptions. The first is that high
population growth in Africa would almost automatically trigger
higher international migration to the neighbouring European
continent. There is even talk of a "rush to Europe". The second
frequently encountered misconception is that migration and flight
in and from Africa is primarily a result of poverty, violent
conflicts and environmental degradation. Both are misconceptions
that cannot be reconciled with the facts at hand.Â
