Abstract
The objective of this working paper is to provide some basic analyses that help us to identify the main factors underlying different propensities to migrate from Africa to Europe (out-migration or departure) and from Europe to Africa (return), across individuals born in different African countries. Namely, we aim at clearly distinguishing the role played by individual, household and contextual factors in increasing (or decreasing) the individual likelihood of African people to migrate between Africa and Europe, rather than the specific migration rates between these two areas and their changes over time (a topic addressed in the working paper on migration patterns).
