MIGRATION and IMMIGRATION
Since its independence in 1960, Ivory Coast has been hailed as the top migration destination country in West Africa – especially among labour migrants and refugees. With the tensions in the country from 2002 until 2020, immigration has declined. However, Ivory Coast remains among the top ten migration corridors in Western Africa, and is host to the highest number of migrants (2,564,857) in the region.
EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
Education System in Ivory Coast is based on the model inherited from the colonial era (a former French colony); it covers preschool (3 years), primary (6 years), general secondary (7 years), vocational (2 years + 3 years: engineer), higher (8 years +) education; literacy and adult education. Primary education, theoretically for children aged 6 to 11 years. It leads to the Certificate of Elementary Primary Education (CEPE). The second level allows access to higher education (University and Schools) after getting the degree of secondary high school (BEPC)
