Migración internacional
La migración internacional ha tenido una presencia constante en la historia de los países de América Latina y el Caribe. La región recibió inmigrantes desde el inicio de su colonización hasta mediados del siglo XX, cuando pasó a ser una región expulsora de población: en efecto, desde 1950 hasta la actualidad presenta saldos migratorios netos negativos.
Executive summary
Fires in displacement sites are a persistent and dangerous reality for millions of people forced from their homes. Despite rising global temperatures and several high-profile incidents, fire preparedness and response remain critically under-addressed in humanitarian response. There is no global system to monitor or reduce fire risk in displacement settings, leaving communities exposed and unprepared for fire emergencies, with no way to understand causes or quantify damage.

Introduction
Demographic projections and estimations are essential for planning and development, as they provide a framework for forecasting population changes that will affect public policy decisions and the use of resources in various areas.
Introduction
Fires in displacement sites are not a new or recent occurrence. They have long represented a dangerous reality for displaced populations across the world.
Migration and Inequality
Drawing on Europe’s experience, this brief provides a cross-country comparative overview of inequality affecting children in the migration pathway, who are often described as 'children on the move'. Following a brief overview of the policy and practice in relation to various categories of refugee and migration children in Europe, it reflects on the performance of the countries with regard to Target 10.7 of the SDG.
