This episode explores Spain’s distinctive strategy toward Africa—expanding aid, deepening diplomacy, and embracing migration as an opportunity rather than a threat. We look at programs like circular migration and youth training that aim to create safe, mutually beneficial mobility, and contrast Spain’s stance with wider Western retrenchment. The government’s focus on West Africa spans economic development, security, culture, and anti-racism efforts, even as domestic political opposition grows.
