Avsnitt 28 - The Diplomacy of Return Migration

In this episode of the Delmi Podcast, we dive into a complex and often controversial issue in politics – the return and readmission process. Why is it so difficult to ensure that individuals with deportation orders actually return? And how can the dialogue between Sweden and countries of origin be enhanced? We explore the crucial role of diplomacy and collaboration with embassies and examine potential solutions. Joined by experts from the Swedish Migration Agency, the Swedish Police Authority, diplomatic missions, and researchers from Delmi, we unpack the best practices and challenges that shape the return and readmission process.
