Handbook for Improving the Production and Use of Migration Data for Development

This handbook is intended to support Member States in the collection, tabulation, analysis, dissemination and use of migration data, and is thus expected to contribute directly to monitoring the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. By assisting countries in collecting data on the stocks, flows, and contributions of migrants and migration to development, it is hoped that the guide will facilitate the integration of migration into national development planning and strategies.
