The Global Migration Group (GMG) produced this publication to provide guidance to producers and users of international migration data. It includes detailed accounts of changes in the field of migration data, thorough explanations of key definitions and concepts, and strategies to bolster migration statistics (e.g., administrative data and 'big data'). Readers will find the notes on 'good practice' to be of particular practical value.
The paper provides an overview of the various capacity building strategies developed by IOM for the management of climate-induced migration. The tools outlined include: (1) Migration, Environment and Climate Change: Training Manual (Facilitator's Guide); (2) Training Workshops on Migration, Environment and Climate Change; and (3) Key Documents on Migration, Environment and Climate Change.
Disaster databases are a primary tool for the analysis of disaster characteristics and trends at global or national scales, and they support disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation. However, the quality, consistency and completeness of different disaster databases are highly variable. Such variation critically influences the outcome of any study.
Le glossaire vise à orienter les chercheurs qui travaillent sur les liens d'interdépendance entre la migration, l'environnement et le changement climatique, afin de garantir la cohérence entre les différents produits de recherche de projet MECLEP. Cependant, il sera aussi utile à d'autres chercheurs el parties prenantes.
