Migration and mobility program
The world is facing unprecedented levels of mobility and migration, and this increasing flow of workers from rural to urban areas and across country borders has deep and profound impacts on development. Once treated as separate issues, the intersections between migration and development are being increasingly recognized on the global stage.
CAPI hosts a dedicated migration and mobility program, which brings together experts in the field from all over the world to share expertise and knowledge of migration and mobility issues related to Asia. As a nexus for scholarly work on the topic, CAPI publishes Migration, Mobility, & Displacement an online, peer-reviewed, open-access journal.
