Abstract

There is a growing number of people from the rural Niger to migrate to some North Africa countries such as Libya and Algeria due to the economic opportunities those countries provide for migrants. In this chapter, the researchers attempts not only to shed light on the real motives behind these young men and women's rush to mainly Algeria and Libya, but also to report on their job searching activities, and the challenges migration candidates face on their way to and from host countries. A three-axis methodological approach (bibliographic research, survey questionnaire, and focus group discussions) was used to find the answers to three coarse questions about this border crossing activity. The results revealed the existence of various causes of migration such as failure of local production systems, poverty, search for better living conditions, and insecurity.
