Media anthology in the Ghana-Nigeria labour migration corridor

This media anthology is the result of a unique collaboration between journalism students from the University of Media, Arts and Communication (UNIMAC) in Ghana and Pan-Atlantic University (PAU) in Nigeria. Through a joint exploration of reporting on labour migration across the Ghana–Nigeria corridor, the students have produced an insightful body of work that reflects the complexity of labour migration in West Africa, highlighting the many facets of this topic through different narratives formats and co-produced by teams of students from both institutions.  

Supported by the International Labour Organization (ILO), this initiative seeks to foster cross-border collaboration in journalism, enabling future media professionals from both origin and destination countries to portray the full spectrum of the migration experience, beyond the limited perspectives often found in international media. Through such partnerships, including the twinning of journalism schools, the ILO is investing in the next generation of journalists, equipping them to produce quality reporting on labour migration.
