ODD

Données migratoires pour les Objectifs de Développement Durable (ODD)

Dernière mise à jour le 20 Février 2024

Le Programme de développement durable à l’horizon 2030, reconnaît pour la première fois que la contribution de la migration au développement durable. La migration est une question transversale, pertinente pour tous les objectifs de développement durable (ODD) (voir ci-contre). 10 des 17 objectifs de développement durable comportent des cibles et indicateurs pertinents pour la migration ou la mobilité. Le principe fondamental du Programme 2030 de « ne laisser personne de côté », y compris les migrants, exige la ventilation des données par statut migratoire, ce qui accroît considérablement les besoins en matière de données migratoires mais qui constitue également une opportunité d’améliorer ces dernières.

Cliquez sur la roue des ODD pour explorer les indicateurs relatifs à la migration ainsi que les sources des données.

La migration dans les ODD

La principale référence à la migration dans les ODD est faite à la cible 10.7, « Faciliter la migration et la mobilité de façon ordonnée, sans danger, régulière et responsable, notamment par la mise en œuvre de politiques de migration planifiées et bien gérées », qui figure dans

l’objectif 10, « Réduire les inégalités dans les pays et d’un pays à l’autre ».

D’autres cibles font directement référence à la migration, notamment celles relatives à la traite des personnes, aux rapatriements de fonds et à la mobilité internationale des étudiants.

La migration est également une question transversale qui concerne chacun des 17 ODD et pour la plupart des 169 cibles du Programme 2030. Par conséquent, iI est important d’aller au-delà des références spécifiques à la migration, et de reconnaitre le lien synergique existant entre celle-ci et chacun des objectifs et cibles afin d’agir en conséquence.

La nécessité de disposer de données actualisées, fiables et comparables sur la migration 

Tout comme les objectifs du Millénaire pour le développement, le Programme 2030 comprend un mécanisme de suivi volontaire à plusieurs niveaux, permettant de suivre les progrès accomplis en ce qui concerne les ODD au cours des 15 prochaines années. Les ODD étant pris en charge par les pays, il incombe aux gouvernements nationaux de faire un rapport sur les ODD. Les évaluations nationales seront le pivot du suivi et de l’examen de la mise en œuvre des ODD ; avec des évaluations régionales, mondiales et thématiques menées en complément.

Afin de suivre les progrès accomplis dans la réalisation des ODD à l’échelle mondiale, le Groupe d'experts inter institutions sur les indicateurs relatifs aux objectifs de développement durable (Inter-agency Expert group on SDG Indicators, IAEG) a établi une liste de 232 indicateurs mondiaux, dont plusieurs sur la migration. Les gouvernements peuvent également, en complément de ce processus ou s’ils ne peuvent établir de rapports sur les indicateurs mondiaux, mettre au point des indicateurs supplétifs permettant de suivre les cibles séparément au niveau local ou national.

L’une des priorités des ODD est de promouvoir la ventilation des données pour mieux servir les intérêts de certains groupes vulnérables et veiller à ce que personne ne soit laissé de côté. À cette fin, la cible 17.18 demande expressément que les données soient ventilées par statut migratoire. Cela permettrait d’obtenir de meilleures données sur les différents aspects de la situation des migrants, de mieux comprendre leurs conditions de vie et de comprendre l’impact de la migration sur la santé, les revenus, l’éducation et d’autres domaines. Une meilleure désagrégation des données est également nécessaire si l’on veut intégrer la migration à d’autres secteurs de développement en tant que thème transversal.

Assurer le suivi et l’évaluation des objectifs est difficile et peut représenter une charge considérable pour les gouvernements, en particulier pour les offices nationaux de statistique. À la fin de 2017, aucune donnée n’existait pour deux tiers des 232 indicateurs des ODD fixés au niveau international[1]. En outre, les indicateurs de migration au niveau mondial sont relativement peu développés ; actuellement, aucun de ceux proposés par l’IAEG n’est de Catégorie 1 (c’est-à-dire qu’ils ne présentent pas de méthodologiese établies).

Par conséquent, les pays doivent améliorer leur capacité à produire des rapports pertinents sur la migration dans le contexte des objectifs de développement durable. Des mesures doivent être prises pour améliorer la production de données actualisées, fiables et comparables sur la migration afin d’aider les décideurs à élaborer des politiques et des plans d’actions fondés sur des données factuelles afin d’aborder les aspects des ODD relatifs à la migration. L’un des objectifs clés pour le renforcement des capacités en matière de données sur la migration vise également à accroître la ventilation de toutes les données selon les variables liées à la migration. Plusieurs pays recueillent déjà des quantités considérables de données sur la migration, mais ne disposent pas de mécanismes pour centraliser, ventiler et relier toutes les données recueillies par les différentes instances du Gouvernement. L’amélioration du partage des données au sein du Gouvernement et entre les pays permettra également de rendre les politiques plus cohérentes, condition essentielle à la réalisation des ODD.

Dans l’ensemble, il est nécessaire d’améliorer les données migratoires aux niveaux local, national, régional et international pour le suivi des ODD, et les gouvernements doivent s’employer à renforcer leurs capacités à cette fin. L’amélioration des données migratoires est essentielle à l’amélioration de la gouvernance des migrations, et le processus de mise en œuvre des ODD peut contribuer à démarrer les efforts en ce sens.

Travaux en cours visant à mesurer la migration dans les ODD

L’OIM et la Division de la population du Département des affaires économiques et sociales des Nations Unis (DAES) ont collaboré  à la mise au point d’une méthodologiee pour permettant de mesurer l’indicateur 10.7.2, « Nombre de pays avec des politiques visant à faciliter les migrations et la mobilité ordonnée, sûre, regulière et responsable». Cet indicateur est basé se fonde sur une évaluation des six domaines d’action politiques définis énoncés dans le Cadre de gouvernance des migrations, et a été accueilli par le Conseil de l’OIM en 2015. Il s’inspire également du travail effectué par l’OIM en collaboration avec l’Economist Intelligence Unit en vue d’élaborer des indicateurs de gouvernance des migrations.

Ces derniers peuvent également être utilisés pour les ODD. Ils ont recours à 90 questions qualitatives pour mesurer les résultats dans cinq domaines, issus du Cadre de gouvernance des migrations. Il s’agit d’un outil d’analyse des lacunes qui ne vise pas à n’a pas pour objectif de classer les pays en fonction de leur politique migratoire, mais vise plutôt à leur offrir des indications sur les leviers politiques susceptibles d’améliorer leur la gouvernance des migrations et de les aider à recenserainsi qu’ à identifier les meilleurs pratiques exemplaires pour les programmes à venir. Les gouvernements peuvent également utiliser les résultats de cette évaluation pour rendre compte de des leurs progrès accomplis dans la réalisation de la cible 10.7 et a d’autres objectifs relatifs à la migration.

What do we know?

 

Migration-relevant SDG targets and indicators:

All indicators are classified by the IAEG-SDGs into three tiers based on their level of methodological development and the availability of data at global level, as outlined here:

 

Target 1.1: Eradicate extreme poverty

 

     Indicator: 1.1.1 - Proportion of population below the international poverty line, by sex, age, employment status and geographical location (urban/rural)

Migration relevance:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Integrating the rights and interests of migrant groups, including asylum seekers, refugees and IDPs, in local and national poverty reduction policies and programming.
  • Recognizing and promoting linkages between migration and poverty reduction for migrants and families, for example through impacts on income, health and education, including through remittances, skills and knowledge transfer and more; addressing barriers that limit these impacts such as poor working conditions for migrant workers and high remittance transfer costs.

Data sources:

  • The indicator can be disaggregated for migrants versus non-migrants, or population living in migrant households versus population living in non-migrant households.
  • Data can be collected through household surveys that include questions on migratory status, e.g. MICS and DHS.

Custodian agency: World Bank

     Indicator: 1.2.2 - Proportion of men, women and children of all ages living in poverty in all its dimensions according to national definitions

Migration relevance: 

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Integrating the rights and interests of migrant groups, including asylum seekers, refugees and IDPs, in local and national poverty reduction policies and programming. 
  • Recognizing and promoting linkages between migration and poverty reduction for migrants and families, for example through impacts on income, health and education, including through remittances, skills and knowledge transfer and more; addressing barriers that limit these impacts such as poor working conditions for migrant workers and high remittance transfer costs.

Data sources:

  • Methodologies vary though estimates are usually derived from household survey data

Custodian agency: National gov.

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 1.3: Implement social protection systems

      Indicator: 1.3.1 - Proportion of population covered by social protection floors/systems, by sex, distinguishing children, unemployed persons, older persons, persons with disabilities, pregnant women, newborns, work-injury victims and the poor and the vulnerable.
 

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Social protection floors are nationally defined sets of basic social security guarantees that should ensure, as a minimum, that over the life cycle, all those in need have access to essential health care and basic income security which together secure effective access to goods and services defined as necessary at the national level (ILO social protection floors recommendation #202).

Custodian agency: ILO

Data sources:

  • The ILO collects data on: (1) people covered by social protection floors/total population; (2) unemployed receiving unemployment benefit/total unemployment (3) employed women covered by maternity benefits/total female employment (4) people above the statutory pensionable age receiving an old-age pension/ people above the statutory pensionable age.
  • It is possible to use household survey data, administrative records can also be used, including registration/membership of relevant schemes and tax or social security agency records and claims from national ministries of labour, social security, and other areas of government. If possible, information on eligibility, coverage and access to social protection in both destination and origin countries should be collected. Migrants may enjoy portability of benefits from origin countries, so if possible, data should be collected on whether migrants are claiming any benefits offered by origin-country governments for citizens abroad.

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 1.4: Equal rights to ownership, basic services, technology and economic resources

      Indicator: 1.4.1 Proportion of population living in households with access to basic services

Migration relevance:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Addressing inequalities in basic services, ownership and control over land and other forms of property, to uphold human rights of migrants, ensure migrants can contribute to social and economic development in host communities, and to address these insofar as they can be potential drivers of migration. Increasing access to economic resources, basic services, ownership and control over land and other forms of property for migrants. Strengthening mechanisms by which migration can increase rights and access to economic resources, basic services and land/property ownership and control to families and communities.

Custodian agency: UN-Habitat

Data sources:

  • Possible data sources include household surveys (e.g. DHS, MICS and Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS)) and IPUMS-International census microdata. 

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 1.5: Built resilience to environmental, economic and social disasters

      Indicator: 1.5.1 - Number of deaths, missing persons and directly affected persons attributed to disasters per 100,000 population

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Addressing how climate-related events and other economic, social and environmental shocks and disasters forcibly displace people.
  • Integrating migration and migrants in disaster risk reduction and management, post-disaster response and other humanitarian responses.
  • Strengthening adaptation strategies and other mechanisms by which people can protect themselves from extreme events which may cause displacement; recognizing migration as an adaptation strategy

What do we know?

 

Migration-relevant SDG targets and indicators:

All indicators are classified by the IAEG-SDGs into three tiers                 based on their level of methodological development and the availability of data at global level, as outlined here:

Target 2.1 Universal access to safe and nutritious food

     Indicator 2.1.1 Prevalence of undernourishment

 

Migration relevance and rationale: tbc

Data sources: 

  • Household surveys are the most common sources for undernourishment data (e.g. DHS, MICS and LSMS). 

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator 2.1.2 Prevalence of moderate or severe food insecurity in the population, based on the Food Insecurity Experience Scale

Migration relevance and rationale: tbc

Data sources: 

  • Data is usually from experience-based food security scale questionnaires used in household surveys. 

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 2.2 End all forms of malnutrition

     Indicator 2.2.1 Prevalence of stunting (height for age < -2 standard deviation from the median of the World Health Organization (WHO) Child Growth Standards) among children under 5 years of age.

 

Migration relevance and rationale: tbc

Data sources: 

  • Most anthropometric data come from household surveys.
  • Note: Wasting is an acute condition that can change frequently and very rapidly. This makes reliable data collection on this over time difficult, as data can only ever record a snapshot in time. This may be especially relevant when collecting data on forcibly displaced or certain hard-to-reach populations.

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator 2.2.2 Prevalence of malnutrition (weight for height > +2 or < -2 standard deviation from the median of the WHO Child Growth Standards) among children under 5 years of age, by type (wasting and overweight)

 

Migration relevance and rationale: tbc

Data sources:

  • Data is based on household surveys.

If you know of additional data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 2.3 Double the productivity and incomes of small-scale food producers

     Indicator 2.3.2 Average income of small-scale food producers, by sex and indigenous status

 

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Increasing income and productivity of small scale food producers, insofar as they can be potential drivers of migration 

Data sources: 

  • Possible data sources include household surveys and IPUMS-International census microdata insofar as they capture relevant data on food producers.
  • Note: Target 2.3 requires a specific focus on indigenous peoples, and relevant disaggregation is recommended.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team. 

Target 2.4 Sustainable food production and resilient agricultural practices

Migration relevance and rationale: See Food security and human mobility.

What do we know?

Cibles et indicateurs des ODD qui concernent la migration : 

All indicators are classified by the IAEG-SDGs into three tiers based on their level of methodological development and the availability of data at global level, as outlined here:

Target 3.1: Reduce maternal mortality

     Indicator: 3.1.1 - Maternal mortality ratio

 

Migration relevance:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status. 
  • Addressing the vulnerability of migrant mothers and pregnant migrants in all countries and communities, including in refugee camps, makeshift settlements and IDP settlements, to increase access maternal health-care services (obstetric, antenatal and postnatal care) and decrease maternal mortality and morbidity. Migrants tend to have higher maternal mortality due to lack of access to proper maternal and child care. This is an outcome variable measuring migrants' access to health services. 

Custodian agency: WHO

Data sources:  

  • Most data are collected through vital registration systems, which may already collect information on country of birth/citizenship of the deceased. Alternatively, IPUMS International census microdata or administrative records can be used. Household surveys may also be used, such as MICS.
  • Note: as maternal mortality is relatively rare, large sample sizes would be needed to make these nationally representative if disaggregated by migratory status. It may be challenging to record migrant maternal mortality on migratory routes or for newly arrived migrants, as this requires strong continuity of health care. 

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator: 3.1.2 - Proportion of births attended by skilled health personnel

 

Migration relevance: 

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Addressing the vulnerability of migrant mothers and pregnant migrants in all countries and communities, including in refugee camps, makeshift settlements and IDP settlements, to increase access maternal health-care services (obstetric, antenatal and postnatal care) and decrease maternal mortality and morbidity.

Data sources: 

  • Common data sources include household surveys such as DHS, MICS or reproductive health surveys (RHS).

Custodian agency: UNICEF, WHO

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 3.2: End all preventable deaths under 5 years of age

      Indicator: 3.2.1 - Under-five mortality rate

 

Migration relevance:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Addressing the vulnerability of migrant newborns and children under 5 years of age in all countries, including in refugee camps, makeshift settlements and IDP settlements, to increase their access to health-care services and decrease mortality and morbidity. This SDG Indicator can reflect to what extent migrants have access to health services.

Data sources:

  • Mainly derived from civil registration, where death registrations should record information on migratory status of the mother and child. Data from censuses (including IPUMS-International microdata) and household surveys may also be used.

Custodian agency: UNICEF

Existing, relevant, disaggregated data sources:

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

      Indicator: 3.2.2 - Neonatal mortality rate

 

Migration relevance:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • Addressing the vulnerability of migrant newborns in all countries, including in refugee camps, makeshift settlements and IDP settlements, to increase their access to health-care services and decrease mortality and morbidity.
  • This SDG Indicator can reflect to what extent migrants have access to health services. 

Custodian agency: WHO

Data sources:

  • Data is mainly derived from civil registration, where death registrations should record information on migratory status of the mother and child.
  • Data from censuses (including IPUMS-International microdata) and household surveys may also be used.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

Target 3.3: Fight communicable diseases

     Indicator: 3.3.1 - Number of new HIV infections per 1,000 uninfected population, by sex, age and key populations 

 

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • This indicator reflects how migrants have access to HIV treatment and antiretroviral therapy (ART), can address epidemiological vulnerability of migrants in all countries and their settlements, and integrate the health needs of migrants in health policy and programming for HIV.

​​​​​​Custodian agency: WHO

Data sources: 

  • Common data sources include household or other surveys with HIV incidence testing (including at focused antenatal clinics (FANC) where expectant mothers are tested) and countries’ regular surveillance systems among key populations if they have them, including a range of health-related administrative records.
  • Note: As new infection rates can be low in some countries, large sample sizes would be needed for surveys to be nationally representative if disaggregated by migratory status.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator: 3.3.2 - Tuberculosis incidence per 1,000 population 

 

Migration relevance:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • This indicator reflects how migrants have access to healthcare services, and can address epidemiological vulnerability of migrants in all countries and their settlements, and integrate the health needs of migrants in health policy and programming for tuberculosis.

​​​​​Custodian agency: WHO

Data sources:

  • Possible data sources include countries’ surveillance systems or other ways to show annual case notifications, surveys of tuberculosis prevalence, or death (vital) registration systems.
  • Note: few national disease control programmes such as those on tuberculosis capture data by migratory status. Countries that have reached elimination phases and with cross-border regions with high disease burden are more likely to have regular data capture; however, these are ad hoc and not always integrated into the HMIS (WHO, 2017). As incidence can be low in some countries, large sample sizes would be needed for surveys to be nationally representative if disaggregated by migratory status.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator: 3.3.3 - Malaria incidence per 1,000 population 

 

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • This indicator reflects how migrants have access to healthcare services, and can address epidemiological vulnerability of migrants in all countries and their settlements, and integrate the health needs of migrants in health policy and programming for malaria.

Custodian agency: WHO

Data sources:

  • Common data sources include countries’ surveillance systems or other ways to show numbers of positive, suspected and/or tested cases.
  • Surveys such as DHS or the Malaria Indicator Survey (MIS) can also be used.
  • Note: As incidence can be low in some countries, large sample sizes would be needed for surveys to be nationally representative if disaggregated by migratory status.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator: 3.3.4 - Hepatitis B incidence per 100,000 population

 

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • This indicator reflects how migrants have access to healthcare services, and can address epidemiological vulnerability of migrants in all countries and their settlements, and integrate the health needs of migrants in health policy and programming to combat hepatitis.

Data sources:

  • Common data sources include countries’ surveillance systems or other ways to calculate country estimates – for example, from serosurveys. 
  • Surveys such as DHS or the Malaria Indicator Survey (MIS) can also be used.
  • Note: As incidence can be low in some countries, large sample sizes would be needed for surveys to be nationally representative if disaggregated by migratory status.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.

 

     Indicator: 3.3.5 - Number of people requiring interventions against neglected tropical diseases (NTDs)

 

Migration relevance and rationale:

  • Data can be disaggregated by migratory status.
  • This indicator reflects how migrants have access to healthcare services, and can address epidemiological vulnerability of migrants in all countries and their settlements, and integrate the health needs of migrants in health policy and programming for NTDs.

Custodian agency: WHO

Data sources: 

  • Possible data sources include any managed by national NTD programmes within ministries of health, including the number of people requiring treatment and care for NTDs as measured by existing country systems.

If you know of data we should include here, please contact the team.
