The text now frames migration as a challenge requiring partnerships with commitments on border management, returns, and counterterrorism. Adds new paragraphs on religious persecution, Christians in the Sahel, and involving churches in EU programmes. Adds a call to combat female genital mutilation and drops a commitment on mobility and visa facilitation for students. Rewords the youth paragraph to support increased participation of European students in exchanges with African universities. Other changes are formal: decimal commas and paragraph renumbering.
