The Horn of Africa region has a high volume of migration flows both into, out of, and within the region. The reasons for migration vary, but deteriorating socio-economic conditions are a significant factor.

This brief theoretically and empirically considers the extent to which...
During the event, the World Bank, IOM and partners provided insights on the methodology, as well as on the recommendations used to conduct longitudinal studies.
The objective of this paper is to design a methodology for a longitudinal study on reintegration outcomes for returnees. A longitudinal study involves a methodology that allows the same variables to be observed over time, thereby allowing a window into the effect of time on the dynamic being studied. This report presents a proposed methodology for a...
These improvements specifically targeting the accessibility have been implemented while recognizing the rapid evolvement of the digital ecosystems and tools, and therefore the need to consider them as part of a continuous work in progress.
