This podcast episode produced under the cross-border conflict evidence, policy, and trends (XCEPT) research programme, explores the transnational connections between migration and armed conflict across Nigeria, Niger, and Libya. Tim Eaton and Leah de Haan examine structural forms of violence - such as unemployment and exclusion in Edo State, Nigeria – along with the direct violence faced along migration routes through Niger into Libya’s conflict economy. The episode introduces the concept of a ‘continuum of violence’ across borders and discusses how people movement has become entangled in Libya’s war economy.
