While the global number of internal migrants outnumbers international migrants by a factor of four, the analysis of internal migration lags behind.
The links between how human development, historical events, cultural norms and political frameworks have shaped population movements within Asia is still not fully understood.
However, the study of population movements is of rising importance. The role of migration in transforming the size, distribution and composition of populations will continue to grow as more countries transition to below-replacement fertility.
To answer these pressing questions, ISIS Malaysia is honoured to host noted demographer Dr Aude Bernard, who will present the results from her multi-year international collaborative research project, which brought together migration scholars from 15 Asian countries and Australia.
Join us in an exclusive online-only presentation, which will focus on measuring and discussing cross-national variations in the level of internal migration, the age and educational selectivity of internal migration, its impact on the distribution of human settlement and its links to international migration.
