World: European Union Will Open a Job Center in Africa

October 6th, 2008

The European Union will open a job center in Africa.

In a move to cut down illegal immigration, the European Union is set to open its first immigration center in Africa, reports the BBC. The center will be in Mali. Each year, thousands of West Africans (often crammed into small boats) die attempting to make the dangerous journey to European countries in search of jobs. The organization hopes that the center will help Africans find legal jobs in Europe, so they don’t have to risk their lives making the trip. In addition, the center will provide information on how to come to Europe legally and assist with job training, the European Commission says. Even college graduates in many West African nations have hard time finding jobs and many times even a basic “low wage” job in Europe will go long way towards supporting their families.

I hope it all works out. Maybe the US should consider this so that the illegal aliens will go about coming to America the proper way.

david-arabs invaded africa a few centuries ago and sold blacks slaves around but it was mostly blacks selling and catching blacks slaves to whites who threatened them to do so or become slaves themselves or get hurt, arabs wasnt a major force in the transatlantic slave trade

Good move by the EU but the prsentation as a little setback, Mali as almost nothing to offer in this regard and I wonder why she is picked as the first country to site such, we should be talking about countries like Nigeria, South Africa, Ghana etc to start with. I suspect this is a game by the EU to give us hopes but only in the wrong place
