It was such a pleasure to visit #UNU-CRIS @ununiversity.bsky.social yesterday, where I presented insights from fieldwork in Ghana’s borderlands on the impact of the AES-ECOWAS split on free movement. I very much look forward to future collaborations and to seeing you all again in beautiful Brugge!

That is a very interesting question! May I ask, do you think this likely? And would ECOWAS welcome back the AES countries? Regarding the latter, my hunch is yes, but do you see AES fail?
