Global International Migration Flows

This eye-opening interactive graphic from three researchers at the Wittgenstein Centre for Demography and Global Human Capital can be of use to educators teaching a wide range of subjects, from history to politics to economics to data analysis. It is also a visually arresting representation of the global migration flow of four five-year periods, 1990-1995, 1995-2000, 2000-2005, and 2005-2010. Based on the girth of the color-coded lines, readers may explore the migration of people from and to Latin America, North America, Africa, Europe, the Former Soviet Union, West Asia, South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Oceania. There are also links to the peer-reviewed articles from which the data was drawn, as well as explanations About The Data, About The Plot, and other information near the bottom of the page.
