تقرير حالة الهجرة الدولية في المنطقة العربية لعام 2025 العلاقة بين الهجرة والتنمية: مساراتٌ نحو الازدهار: موجز سياسي
Jun 2025
Working Paper
لقد شهدت العلاقة بين الهجرة والتنمية اهتماما متزايدا في السنوات الأخيرة، على الصعيدين العالمي والإقليمي، مما يعكس الأثر العميق لتنقّل السكان على بلدان المنشأ وبلدان المقصد داخل المنطقة وخارجها. وتتناول طبعة عام 2024 من تقرير حالة الهجرة الدولية في المنطقة العربية العلاقة الهامة بين الهجرة والتنمية في منطقة تمر بتحولات ديموغرافية واقتصادية واجتماعية وتكنولوجية تحويلية. ويقدم التقرير تحليلا لاتجاهات الهجرة والتحديات والفرص، مع التركيز على الدور المزدوج للهجرة بوصفها محركا ونتاجا للتنمية. وتسلط الرؤى الرئيسية الضوء على إمكانات الهجرة للمساهمة بشكل إيجابي في المجتمعات المضيفة وبلدان المنشأ. فالمهاجرون يجلبون مهارات ومعارف وتنوّعات ثقافية قيّمة، بينما تدعم التحويلات المالية الأسر وتقلل من الفقر وتحفّز النمو الاقتصادي. لكنّ تحقيق هذه النتائج يتطلب سياسات تحمي حقوق المهاجرين وتعظّم مساهماتهم في التنمية. هذا وإنّ التعاون الإقليمي ضروري أيضا، حيث إن الطبيعة المترابطة للبلدان العربية تعني أن سياسات الهجرة في بلد من البلدان قد تؤثر بشكل كبير على جيرانه. ويقدم هذا التقرير خارطة طريق لتسخير إمكانات الهجرة، مع التصدي للتحديات التي تواجهها. فمن خلال اعتماد نهج شامل واستشرافي، يمكن للمنطقة العربية أن تنصّب الهجرة كمصدر للقوة والقدرة على الصمود والازدهار المشترك.
Breaking the Cycle: Addressing Inequalities in Child Survival to Promote Inclusive Social Development
Oct 2025
Working Paper
Thirty years ago, Member States gathered at the first World Summit for Social Development recognized that good health is both a consequence and a driver of social development and committed to reducing mortality rates among children under age 5. Since then, levels of child mortality have fallen significantly (United Nations, 2024). Yet, as the world prepares for the Second World Summit for Social Development in November 2025, profound disparities in child health and survival persist within and among countries, making it difficult for those furthest behind to break out of mutually rein-forcing cycles of poor health, poverty and social exclusion. This policy brief explores disparities in child mortality within and among countries and provides a series of recommendations aimed at ending preventable child deaths and reducing inequalities in child survival in different contexts.
Social Impact Assessment of COVID-19 in Bosnia and Herzegovina
Jun 2022
Working Paper
The present third edition of the Social Impact of COVID-19 Household Survey is articulated across and covers eight key dimensions: 1) Impact on physical and mental health of people, 2) Access to Services, 3) Economic situation, 4) Household coping strategies to meet basic needs in crisis, 5) Education and transition to online learning, 6) Relationships and well-being, 7) Public perception of the response to the crisis, and 8) Internet usage, e-commerce and digital services. The Survey is people-centred, and it is focused throughout on people’s wellbeing. As such, it detects the emerging vulnerabilities, strengths and coping mechanisms of people. It also captures the consequences of COVID-19 pandemic on social interactions and records changes in gender relations due to shifting power dynamics within households. Data in this Survey show that the social and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are still felt and are compounded by the recent rise in food and energy prices. Data strongly suggest that these combined and cumulative effects are sending strong shockwaves across Bosnia and Herzegovina, causing increased poverty and food deprivation and worsening inequalities. Furthermore, mental health of the population continues to be severely affected. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected both the economic and social situation across all age groups. Data show a continued and drastic impact of the crisis on those who are either already disadvantaged, at risk or more vulnerable, such as people living below the poverty line, families with children, single parents, Roma, internally displaced people, minority returnees and LGBTI community. The crisis also negatively and disproportionately affected people with disabilities and the elderly, who are, as a result, increasingly struggling in conducting their routine activities. The severity of the impact leads to feelings of inequality, including gender inequality, discrimination, and isolation. Data show that the pandemic also triggered major shifts in the way people think, socialize, communicate and live. Of particular concern are the effects of the crisis on basic social services such as health, including mental health, and access to quality education.
