Asia–Pacific Migration Data Report 2023

The Asia–Pacific Migration Data Report 2023 is the fourth edition of the annual flagship publication series by the IOM Regional Data Hub for Asia and the Pacific. The report provides data-driven insights into key migration trends in 2023, drawing on the latest available data and information from diverse international, regional and national sources.  

Structured around six thematic pillars – Migration Overview, Types of Migration, Migration Policy, Migration and Vulnerability, Migration and Development and Migration and Innovation – the report aims to foster a nuanced understanding of the migration dynamics in the region. 

This new edition contributes to supporting evidence-informed policy and programmatic actions towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration, in alignment with the IOM strategic priorities of saving lives and protecting people on the move, driving solutions to displacement, and facilitating pathways for regular migration.
