Migration Data Portal
2024
This data portal from the International Organization for Migration provides the most recent data on migration worldwide, bringing together more than 70 migration data indicators from over 20 international data sources. Individuals can view migration patterns by country, subregion, and region, for any year between 1990–2021. Additionally, users can navigate between indicators in categories such as immigration and emigration, migrant flow, vulnerability of populations, development, migration policy, and public opinion. The portal curates a series of thematic pages on migration data sources and their strengths and weaknesses, organized by theme (e.g., vulnerability, development, policy) and written in collaboration with related experts. Coupled with the thematic guides are a database of tools and resources for improving migration data, searchable by migration theme, data source, and region of focus; migration governance snapshots; and a variety of accessible blogs and videos with leading data experts.
The International Organization for Migration (IOM) works within and with governments to address issues surrounding migration. The organization is committed to the principle that “humane and orderly migration is good for migrants and society.” In order to ensure the humane treatment of migrants and displaced peoples, IOM works with the international community to assist with the growing operational challenges associated with migration, advance the understanding of migration issues, highlight the social and economic benefits of migration, and ensure that migrants are treated with dignity.
