Chapter 4 – Migration research and analysis: Growth, reach and recent contributions

As the interest in migration has risen over time, so too has the amount of information published on this increasingly complex and most pressing global issue. Ideally, the knowledge originating from rigorous analysis and research on migration should be the prime source and starting point for informing policymakers, practitioners, students, scholars and the public about migration and how it is changing. However, the growth in publically available material on migration makes this increasingly hard. In an era of “information overload”, it can be challenging to identify, collect and digest relevant and robust material on migration.
