Policy

1

The borders of developed countries must be opened fully Because natural population change is in sharp decline, the borders of OECD (Organisation for Economic Co- operation and Development) countries need to be opened to immigrants as quickly as possible, to ward off the demographic catastrophe that is non-replacement of the generations. Financial aid for families would do nothing to increase the birth rate.

2

Immigration must have an objective. The borders must be left open to immigrants who have good reason to emigrate Immigrants should have a reason (a goal) when they decide to leave their country. Their status as refugees must be the result either of political instability, war, famine or natural disasters, or simply the need to escape misery. Developed nations must welcome these refugees for humanitarian reasons and share a little of their wealth.

3

Immigrants must be chosen according to strict criteria Only immigrants with a certain level of economic resources or who work in an economic sector where labour is in short supply (the hotel trade, catering, public works, etc.) should be entitled to enter developed countries. Immigrants seeking to join up with their families should have to undergo DNA tests.

4

The borders of developed countries must be closed as quickly as possible Indeed, a massive influx of immigrants into OECD nations would only serve to aggravate the economic situation in these countries. The borders must therefore be closed and families offered financial incentives to procreate, so as to counter the drop in the fertility rate.

New policies

Overview of the new policies developed by players in this country.

Gli stati dell'OCSE dovrebbero adoperarsi per alleviare le principali problematiche dei paesi che costituiscono i principali punti di partenza dei flussi migratori. La migrazione da tali paesi deve essere consentita, ma deve essere un'immigrazione con un obiettivo.
(OECD countries should help developing countries representing migration starting point, so that living standards in such countries improve. Migration from such countires to OECD members should be allowed, but it should have an aim.)
