For the 2009 Human Development Report, we have prepared visual and interactive presentations of migration data as it relates to our theme of human mobility. They all may be accessed through this page.

How and why people moveIn general, people move of their own volition, to better-off places. More than three quarters of international migrants go to a country with a higher level of human development than their country of origin. Yet, they are significantly constrained, both by policies that impose barriers to entry and by the resources they have available to enable their move. | |
