Migration and Displacement Action Plan for Sub-Saharan Africa (MAPS)
The MAPS Project is a three-year initiative aiming at strengthening policy-making and programming on migration and forced displacement in Sub-Saharan Africa. With a €10 million budget funded primarily by the European Commission, MAPS brings together a multidisciplinary network of African and European partners—including Sapienza University of Rome, five Italian universities with UNESCO Chairs, and universities in Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya, and Spain. It is supported by advisory bodies such as the IOM Regional Data Hub and the University of the Witwatersrand.
