This report gathers and analyzes information on social security programmes and labour migration in African countries participating in the "Extension of Social Security Coverage to African Migrant Workers Project" (MIGSEC). The project aims to improve national and regional strategies for the extension of social security coverage to migrant workers and their families through social security agreements, and to strengthen sub-regional mechanisms to effectively prepare or reinforce the compliance with regional social security conventions to accompany the various sub-regional processes in Africa. The MIGSEC project covers Burundi, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Mali, Mauritania, Mauritius, Rwanda, Senegal, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda and Zambia. (GIGA-Hff)

In a 2012 Communication, the European Commission described the current approach to social security coordination with third countries as 'patchy'. The European Commission proposed to address that patchiness by developing a common EU approach to social security coordination with third countries whereby the Member States would cooperate more with each other when concluding bilateral agreements with third countries. This article aims to explore the policy agenda of the European Commission in that field by conducting a comparative legal analysis of the Member States' bilateral agreements with India. The idea behind the comparative legal analysis is to determine whether (1) there are common grounds between the Member States' approaches, and (2) based on these common grounds, it is possible to suggest a common EU approach. India is taken as a third-country case study due to its labour migration and investment potential for the European Union. In addition, there are currently 12 Member State bilateral agreements with India and no instrument at the EU level on social security coordination with India. Therefore, there is a potential need for a common EU approach to social security coordination with India. Based on the comparative legal analysis of the Member States' bilateral agreements with India, this article ends by outlining the content of a potential future common EU approach.

El presente artículo tiene por objeto desarrollar los aspectos relevantes del Convenio de Seguridad Social entre España y Venezuela, suscrito en el año 1988, así como el Acuerdo Administrativo complementario que regula los trámites para la puesta en ejecución del acuerdo internacional. El Convenio de Seguridad Social constituye un acuerdo que fortaleció las relaciones diplomáticas de ambos países derivados de los procesos de globalización económica, en la búsqueda del reconocimiento y la materialización de las prestaciones de seguridad social entre los nacionales, familiares y refugiados, que abrió brecha para el establecimiento de acuerdos similares con otros países, que inclusive origino una mirada más amplia a los Convenios adoptados por la Organización Internacional del Trabajo, sin embargo resulta conveniente, a pesar de las confrontaciones políticas que se están suscitando en la actualidad, y del gran apoyo otorgado por España a los emigrantes, que en un futuro ambas partes contratantes estudie la posibilidad de fortalecer los beneficios prestacionales, para que sea adoptado a las innovaciones que en materia de seguridad social se han implementado con posterioridad tanto en Venezuela como en España. ; The purpose of this article is to develop the relevant aspects of the Social Security Agreement between Spain and Venezuela, signed in 1988, as well as the supplementary Administrative Agreement that regulates the procedures for the implementation of the international agreement. The Social Security Agreement constitutes an agreement that strengthened the diplomatic relations of both countries derived from the processes of economic globalization, in the search for the recognition and realization of social security benefits among nationals, relatives and refugees, which opened a gap for the establishment of similar agreements with other countries, which even originated a broader view of the Conventions adopted by the International Labor Organization, however, it is convenient, despite the political confrontations that are arising today, and the great support granted by Spain to the emigrants, that in the future both contracting parties study the possibility of strengthening the benefit benefits, so that it is adopted to the innovations that in the matter of social security have been implemented later in both Venezuela and Spain.
