Migration patterns are being monitored along certain coastlines. The West African-Atlantic Route has seen a resurgence in irregular migration by sea. While the number of arrivals has fluctuated, it shows an overall upward trend.

Departures have originated from several coasts, including those of Mauritania, Morocco, Senegal, and The Gambia. A monitoring tool has been used to capture relevant events and provide insights into migrant profiles and movement patterns. Further details are available from the source, including information on the monitoring tool and its findings.

The tool has been used since 2019 to support evidence-based interventions.
