The objective of this report is to identify important factors underlying the propensity to migrate from DR Congo to Europe, and from Europe to DR Congo. Among these factors, we aim at distinguishing the role played by individual, household and contextual factors. In the first section, we present a brief history of political and economic changes, followed by a review of the literature on the determinants of departures and returns among Congolese. Data and descriptive analyses are then presented, and are followed by results of multivariate event history models. The results are divided into two main parts. The first one devoted to the analysis of migration out of DR Congo, and the second one to the analysis of return migration from Europe to Africa
