ABSTRACT:
Human migration is an age-old activity touching almost every society around the world. Particularly, in this age of intensified globalization the pace and the rate of migration have been alarmingly increased than any than ever before.  In face of this, it needs the cautious response of the countries to widen the legal possibilities of migration and to take the potential benefits of the process. In this regard, Ethiopia has been making its attempt to adopt various international agreements on minimizing the illegal migration, formulated proclamations and set up several institutional frameworks too. Unlikely it was found that the rate of informal outflow of its citizens left strangely huge. Thus, this paper attempts to appraise the effectiveness of the migration governance of Ethiopia with particular focus to irregular migration. The data in the paper were collected from the secondary sources through the online means and the rapid review was made using a document analysis method. Finally, it was found that the irregular migrations haven’t shown a significant decrease despite the legal responses. The problem has been yet worsened due to lack of national migration policy which in turn resulted in lack of accountability. 
Key terms: Illegal migration, migration governance, tools and institutions.
