Description

Migration is a topic that generates a lot of argument and debate. This is despite the research that states migration has happened worldwide for centuries and that it has, with few exceptions, been beneficial for
societies.

This pocket-size booklet includes:

• Why thinking about world migration matters
• 10 short myths about ‘push’ and ‘pull’ factors of migration, conspiracy theories such as ‘cultural replacement’ and availability of access to safe channels to apply for refugee status
• Links to the Sustainable Development Goals
• References per each myth following a fact or fiction approach and an explainer

The 10 Myths About…. series looks to sort facts from fiction on key global development, human rights and justice issues.
