On 7 April Birgitte Mossin Brønden joined the research unit on Migration for a two-year period working as an analyst appointed from the Foreign Ministry to DIIS. She will work on a project on Migration and Development. The project will first of all explore migration and remittance patterns in sub-Saharan Africa and examine ways by which African states can have further benefits from the potentials of remittances. Secondly the project will examine the political limits to the benefits to be drawn from migration/development/remittances and last drawing on the conclusions of the above mentioned, analyse the politics of “co-development” and EU’s comprehensive approach to migration using specific cases.

Birgitte comes from employment as Head of Section at the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs. She has previously been posted as Embassy Secretary in Paris covering French foreign and economic policy, including development policy. Birgitte holds a Ma in Political Science and a CEP (Certificat d’Etudes Politiques) and she has been a CPFF scholar at the Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University.
