Introduction

Migration has become a defining feature of the social, economic and political life in today’s globalized and mobile world. Although return is an important stage of the migration process and a critical element of effective migration management, its various aspects and linkages to development are just beginning to receive the policy attention they deserve. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in exploring the dynamics and connections between return migration and development, not only by States but also by various national and international actors, including intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations (NGO), migrant associations, and the private sector.
