The pilot project fully addresses one of the core objectives of the AMIF, by supporting legal migration of Moroccan citizens to an EU Member State, namely Belgium, in line with the labour market needs of the latter, and specifically of the Flanders Region, while at the same time promoting the effective integration of Moroccan citizens in the specific cities where they will be working while in Belgium. The pilot project also aligns with important global goals such as better migration management in line with the migration related targets of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals Agenda. It also aligns with the overarching framework of EU external migration policy, the European Agenda on Migration and the Global Approach to Migration and Mobility, as we will describe further on.
