Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a crucial role in border control and protecting national security from all significant security threats. AI has been adopted in this field to detect migrant infiltration before they cross into other countries, analyze their data, and use proactive technological methods to predict their movements. Consequently, AI technologies have greatly contributed to mitigating the risks of migration in many countries in the MENA region. Especially since it causes strain on the economies and hinders their sustainable development efforts of these countries.

This research paper explores the impact of using AI tools in migration governance and border control policies on sustainable development in the Middle East and North Africa region. It highlights the applications of AI in migration management policies, which serve as an important source of information for government policymakers and all stakeholders in this field. This study aims to reveal the role of these government policies in promoting and supporting sustainable development in the region through their use of artificial intelligence tools in migration management and border control. Therefore, we conclude from this study that the use of artificial intelligence technologies in migration management is highly beneficial to sustainable development in the region; however, this benefit will not be widespread across the region without coordination, participation, and active involvement from the countries of the region in migration management.
