Has shifting wealth affected international migration?
Annex 2.A1 Diverging trends
Recent trends in international migration
History shows that international migration results from push-and-pull factors affected by policy
The share of migration to developed countries increased significantly from 1995 to 2015
Concentration of migration has increased over the last two decades
Immigration to HI countries decreased after the 2008 economic crisis
Country specificities have a strong effect on the trajectory of migration
The gender of migrants and their education level vary across regions and country categories
Conclusion
Key drivers of recent international migration
An empirical analysis shows how key drivers have affected migration from 1995 to 2015
Persistent inequalities between countries explain the recent evolution of migration
Economic development boosts emigration opportunities
Conclusion
Annex 4.A1 Results of the different empirical analyses
Annex 4.A2 Shift share analysis of the growth rate of tertiary-educated emigrants to OECD countries between 2000 and 2010
How public policies affect migration flows
Changed migration policies are affecting migration patterns
Policies not directly related to migration can also affect flows
Conclusion
A new refugee era
Recent trends in refugee movements
Demographic and skills profiles of refugee populations.
Explaining the patterns of refugee flows
Managing refugee crises
Conclusion
The development impact of migration in origin countries
Emigrants bring many benefits to their home countries
But emigration can come with economic, human and social costs
The impact of migration on development depends upon the policies in place
Sectoral policies also play a key role in turning emigration into development
Conclusion
Impacts of immigration to developing countries
Understanding the economic impacts of immigration
Analysing the socio-cultural and environmental impacts of immigration
Policies shape the development impact of immigration
Four possible scenarios for international migration in 2030
Forecasting future migration patterns presents enormous problems
Scenarios explore different alternative futures for migration
Scenario 1: Slower shifting wealth
Scenario 2: SDG success
Scenario 3: Crisis with attempt for co-operation
Scenario 4: Rapid automation and conflict
Moving forward in 2016
Annex 9.A1. Migration patterns between 2015 and 2030 in the four scenarios
