El número estimado de migrantes en África en 2010 es de 19 millones, algo menos del 9 por ciento del balance total de migrantes en el mundo en 2010, aunque estos números pueden ser mayores debido a la relativa falta de datos sobre migraciones. África es un continente que afronta bajos niveles de seguridad humana, lo cual actúa como acicate para la migración. A pesar de que áfrica es ante todo un continente de emigración, las dinámicas en cada una de sus regiones es diferente y existen varios países que actúan como nuevos países de destinos y de tránsito.
En África Occidental, la Comunidad Económica de Estados de áfrica Occidental (CEEAO) ha establecido el protocolo de la CEEAO sobre la libre circulación de personas y sobre el derecho de residencia y establecimiento. Los países norteafricanos han sido tradicionalmente países de origen de migrantes y se están convirtiendo rápidamente en países de tránsito y destino para migrantes africanos y de otras procedencias. Las migraciones desde el este de Àfrica son, sobre todo, entre regiones con considerables flujos tanto de migrantes forzosos como voluntarios. El sur de África acoge al mayor número de migrantes internacionales del continente con 1.9 millones en Sudáfrica.
Las políticas de migración varían a lo largo del continente desde aquellas que se ocupan de la migración forzada a aquellas que lo hacen de la migración de personas altamente cualificadas o de la migración y el desarrollo. Las políticas de integración, aunque son prácticamente inexistentes, necesitarán tomar en consideración los crecientes flujos migratorios a nivel regional y transfronterizo.
