Gender and Migration
Thanks to Susan Martin for this tip! Gender and migration has received quite a lot of attention recently, particularly in the context of the recent UN High Level Dialogue on Migration and Development. The UN Fund for Population Activities (UNFPA) devoted its 2006 State of the World’s Population to international migration, with a particular focus on gender. There’s a link on their homepage: http://www.unfpa.org/. The 2004 World Survey on the Role of Women and Development, put out by the UN Division for the Advancement of Women, also focused on women and migration. It is also available online at <click here>.
