Data Collection and Analysis, Chapter 2 of the Ten Point Plan in Action 2016 Update
The chapter within a larger UNHCR work The 10 Point Plan in Action addresses the management of mixed migration, or migratory movements where migrants travelling along the same route have different motives (such as seeking better economic opportunity or fleeing persecution). This chapter looks at the quantitative side of this process that would help identity important trends in popular travel routes, characteristics of those on the move, common push and pull factors driving the migration, and more. The handbook breaks down the necessary materials, actors, and processes required to gather and use the relevant data. Case studies from all over the world show the concepts in practice in very different projects. Cases treat Europe, the Americas, and Africa. Highly readable and informative.
