Research

ICMPD's Research Unit aims to further knowledge on migration-related issues, to facilitate cooperation and synergy within and beyond the research community and to respond to an increased demand for a more policy-relevant research. ICMPD has built a reputation for research on international migration trends, patterns and policies in the wider European context based on comparative analysis. This work is policy-oriented and empirical with an interdisciplinary and international approach.
