Migration Policy Practice (Vol. VI, Number 3, June-September 2016)
Welcome to the new issue of Migration Policy Practice, a special edition on
recent and ongoing trends on Afghan displacement. Guest edited by Marie
McAuliffe, Head of Migration Policy Research at IOM Headquarters in Geneva,
this special issue examines some of the key underlying Afghan displacement
factors; current displacement data holdings; movements to Central Asia; Afghan
integration in neighbouring Iran; decision-making in transit, return and
reintegration to Afghanistan; and identity and sense of belonging of Afghan
settlers. Drawing from contributions to a conference on Afghan migration
convened at the Australian National University in March of this year, this
special issue includes articles by experts from the University of Oxford, the
University of New South Wales, the Calcutta Research Group and the Observer
Research Foundation, the University of Tehran, Maastricht University, IOM,
Samuel Hall and Monash University. The editors would like to invite readers to
spare a couple of minutes to participate in a short readers satisfaction
survey. The purpose of this survey, which can be taken anonymously, is to help
us identify our readers profiles, the institutions they represent and their
primary interests in our journal. The survey responses should contribute, in
particular, to adjusting and improving, as appropriate, the journals contents
and style and the readers experience. Should you wish to participate in this
survey, please click here. 2016 / 52 pages

| Global Migration Data Analysis Centre: Data Briefing Series | Issue No. 5,
September 2016
Data on refugee and migrant children are the focus of Issue 5 of the IOM GMDAC
Data Briefing Series. This briefing, written by Rachel Humphries and Nando
Sigona, reviews the sources and availability of data on refugee and migrant
children arriving in Europe by sea. It finds that variance in policy and
practice across European Union Member States results in stark differences in
how and when children are recorded, including whether they are considered
accompanied or unaccompanied. Methodologies used to determine age, and how this
information is used, also differ from State to State, as do the rights to
protection that children receive. The Annex sets out the different definitions
used to categorize child migrants and refugees across international and
European publications and conventions and a comparison of available data
sources on unaccompanied minors.
The authors discuss how double-counting occurs as children move within and
between countries, and the consequences of this when estimating the number of
missing refugee children across Europe. In addition, broad gaps in data on the
gender and age of minors who arrive in Europe irregularly further point to what
cannot be known from the existing systems of information collection. Overall,
there is a need for improved data collection in order that States might develop
better policy responses to meet their international obligations towards
children. 2016 / 12 pages

| | The Middle East and North Africa: Annual Report 2015 (Arabic) In
2015, significant flows of migration to, through and from the Middle East and
North Africa continued unabated. Ongoing conflict, economic stagnation and
political turmoil were main drivers of migration, though motives for movement
remain complex. There were dramatic shifts in the scale and routes of migration
to, through and from the region, contributing to a movement of people on a
scale which has not been seen in over 70 years. The IOM Middle East and North
Africa Annual Report 2015 looks at the facts and figures of migration flows,
and also takes a closer look at the stories of people on the move. The annual
report, in addition to presenting IOMs programmatic spectrum in the Middle East
and North Africa, places a special focus on the movements to, through and from
the Middle East and North Africa to the Mediterranean as a specific area of
geographic focus. It also contains a section on refugee resettlement activities
from the region, which increased significantly in 2015. Finally, the report
includes a section on research and publications. A data analysis section
providing an overview of all activities carried out in the region in 2015 is
forthcoming. 2016 / 40 pages
