Measuring Hard-to-Count Migrant Populations: Importance, Definitions, and Categories

The report clarifies which migrants are considered "hard to count" (such as irregular migrants or trafficking victims) and offers brief overviews of methods used to measure these particular cross-border flows as well as factors influencing the data collection process. Most useful is the extensive list of sample survey questions that can be used to help identify these populations.
