Measuring Migration's Development Impacts: Preliminary evidence from Jamaica

This is the second working paper from GDN and ippr's global research project, Development on the Move: Measuring and Optimising Migration's Economic and Social Impacts. It is written with two purposes in mind: to present the first set of findings from the project and to illustrate the potential of the Development on the Move survey, providing a useful resource for the researchers we are working with in other countries, and to researchers outside this project.

Development on the Move is a large, innovative, policy-focused research project aiming to examine the impact of migration on development. It is run jointly by the Global Development Network, based in New Delhi, India, and the London-based ippr.
