Abstract
This RMMS briefing paper provides an update on the volume, trends, and modus operandi of migrant smuggling1 withinand from the Horn of Africa. It offers new estimates of the volume of smuggling, the value of the illicit migrant smugglingeconomy, and the conditions and risks faced by smuggled migrants. This paper finds that migrant smuggling within andfrom the Horn of Africa continues to occur, with new smuggling routes opening in response to irregular migration relatedrisks and law enforcement responses to migrant smuggling on traditionally popular routes. Smuggling as part of the mixedmigration flows are more and more common, particularly as travel across borders becomes more dangerous. The paperalso provides information on the operations of migrant smuggling – including smuggling routes, activities, and profiles.
