International Migration: Strengthening the Knowledge Base for Policy
This panel’s general goal is to inform policy and programmatic responses to migration and migrants by bringing scientific theory and evidence to the analysis of current and future trends and patterns of international migration, the causes and consequences of population movements, and policy response. The activities of the Panel will include convenings of population scientists around issues of international migration, including the organization of a major scientific conference on international migration, integration of evidence into international migration governance, and engagement and training of future generations of population scholars in the study of international migration and mobility.
