The number of migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean for Europe has been dropping and that is partly because of tougher measures introduced on the migrant routes, as Mike Thomson reports from Niger.

These include tougher penalties for traffickers , help in returning people back,advice on setting up a business and education programmes.
