Migration’s Middlemen: Regulating Recruitment Agencies in the Philippines-UAE Corridor
Washington, DC
Private recruitment agencies are key intermediaries in international migration. They facilitate, and sometimes drive, temporary labor migration to an increasing number of countries today. In origin, transit, and destination countries, recruitment agencies guide prospective migrants through immigration processes and travel requirements, match employers and workers, and provide information about living and working conditions. For many migrants, however, deception and abuse are part of the package delivered by labor recruiters.

Leaving Home: The Impact of Global Migration on Economic, Social and Human Development
Washington D.C.
With approximately 200 million migrants across the world, global migration has become not only a reality but also a spur to essential policy discussions in several countries with high immigrant populations. At the same time, very little is known about the impact of migration in the countries from which migrants originate. The effects on those left behind, the significance of remittances, and the consequences of returned migrants on quality of life, labor and development are among the important issues requiring further study.

Copenhagen, Denmark
Globalization has made international migration easier in many respects. The cost of travel has dropped; information about opportunities in destination countries has increased; the incentives to migrate are high, partly as a result of such increased information flows. These incentives are shared by those with the skills that are sought by destination countries as well as by those who do not possess them, or who migrate for other reasons, for instance as refugees, asylum-seekers, or family dependents.
