africa migration report

This first edition of the EAC Migration Statistics Report provides a highlight of the migration trends within the EAC Partner States.

It further aims to provide some insight on the availability of data on migration in the region and existing data gaps and limitations. The report makes use of available data from the STATAFRIC Migration Statistics Database that was collected and used for the purpose of generating the 3rd Edition Labour Migration Statistics Report. The report further utilizes data collected by the EAC through the East Africa Monitoring System, EAC Facts and figures and some data collected specifically for use in the report.

This first edition provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for all producers and users of migration statistics, it is envisioned that future editions will build up on this first edition to better highlight migration and mobility matters in the region. Data on migration and mobility are still scarce and have varied levels of disaggregation and harmonisation within and across the Partner States. The report is foreseen to contribute to harmonisation efforts within the region.
