Les compagnies/aéroports auront donc plus de flexibilité pour établir des plans de vols/liaisons aux horaires intenables. Les voyageurs peuvent s'attendre à des retards plus fréquents, plus longs et des connexions plus imprévisibles. Bravo aux groupements d'intérêts qui ont réussi à faire passer ça!

Thanks again @mhalla.bsky.social for the intriguing presentation and stimulating discussions!

Nice to see our work featured in an article that draws on research by leading experts, including @mclem.org, to explore past & future trends in African migration. I’ll soon share more on our analysis of the link between selective emigration, human capital accumulation, and economic development. 2/2

Africans need jobs. The rest of the world needs workers Migration from Africa is a mega-trend that transcends today’s populist surge
