Statistics report about immigration in Africa

Immigration in Africa

Migration in Africa is characterized by movements within and from the continent. This report presents data on international migrants living in the African continent as well as African-born migrants living in other parts of the world. It also displays figures on refugees, asylum seekers, and internally displaced individuals. Lastly, the report dives into illegal migration through the Atlantic and Mediterranean routes - the latter is considered the most deadly migration route in the world.
