    This Project is part of the following research programme/s:

    Population estimation and forecasting

    Overview

    The project was a follow-up to the work on IMEM: Integrated Modelling of European Migration, where we fine-tuned the estimates of the age and sex structures of the international migration flow estimates. The final estimates, and their associated error measures, are available from the dedicated IMEM website.

    Migration statistics
    (2014).

Reflecting the current public debate on migration, this event seeks to unwrap what we know about migration intelligence. Join our expert panel to discuss the methods and reliability of migration data, what the data tell us, and what other means could be used to improve accuracy. Jakub Bijak was on the panel for this event.
