3.1f What are the dynamics and relationships between development, economic growth and migration?
Background
Research on migration can inform FCDO policy decisions by providing data and analysis on migration patterns, drivers, and impacts, both globally and for the UK. Such evidence is crucial to inform international migration policy, address its harms, reinforce its benefits, and achieve strategic goals related to development, security, and international stability. Research can help build a better picture of the complex drivers of migration and ensure that diplomacy, policy and programmes draw on holistic, detailed evidence about what works in migration, leading to more effective and targeted interventions.
