inter-ministerial technical working groups to facilitate the collection of relevant information from different entities. The technical working groups also enabled the governments to provide input to the report at every stage of the drafting process and to consider more broadly a coherent approach to data collection and policy development. The completed drafts of the national <strong>Migration</strong> <strong>Profile</strong>s were presented at national policy planning workshops, on the basis of which governments issued recommendations on future policy development and improved data collection. National <strong>Migration</strong> <strong>Profile</strong>s are thus the outcome of broader government-supported processes aimed at enhancing the use of data for policy development. They go further than simply reporting on data. Through mechanisms such as the technical working groups and national policy planning workshops, the reports also constitute a tool to provide better information for, and thus advance policy planning on, international migration in the target countries. In order to remain an effective information tool for policymaking, <strong>Migration</strong> <strong>Profile</strong>s must be updated regularly and used for policy development. The sustainability of the governmental mechanisms established to prepare <strong>Migration</strong> <strong>Profile</strong>s remains a key challenge. The baseline data from which the reports draw and the reporting format also require improvement to allow for a more sophisticated analysis of migration-related trends. Although the <strong>Migration</strong> in West and Central Africa: National <strong>Profile</strong>s for Strategic Policy Development project has started to address these challenges, further action is required to ensure that <strong>Migration</strong> <strong>Profile</strong>s remain an information tool for policy development which can be updated regularly. This report would not have been possible without the contributions of a number of people. We would like to thank the national expert, Adejumoke Afolayan, for drafting the report; Rudolf Anich, Jobst Koehler and Timon Van Lidth for coordinating, reviewing and editing the <strong>Migration</strong> <strong>Profile</strong>; Pierpaolo Capalbo for research assistance in the final stages; the IOM Focal Point and IOM Mission in Abuja for providing additional information; and last, but not least, the government officials who provided valuable input to the report at different stages.
