Migration

In 2014, Seychelles launched the first Migration Profile, which highlighted key facts and figures concerning migration to, from and within the country, the impact of migration on development within the country and the migration governance structures in the country.

This section provides background and context information.

This section explains the ways in which climate links to trafficking and exploitation in the Philippines, based on both primary and secondary data and analysis.

The Agenda for Humanity, the 2016 United Nations Summit for Refugees and Migrants, the Global Compact for Migration and the Global Compact on Refugees all acknowledge climate change as a major factor influencing migration.

This section explains the ways in which climate links to TIP – specifically exploitation – in Ethiopia, based on both primary and secondary data and analysis.

The findings of this study underscore the health impacts of climate change on internal migrant workers in the industrial zones of Hanoi, the capital of Viet Nam.

TIP is a serious human rights violation that continues to affect millions of people globally, including in the West African region (UNODC, 2024).

The population of Seychelles has been growing steadlily since 2014 (Table 9).

Swiftly changing demographic trends in Latin America and the Caribbean represent challenges and opportunities for the region, which is facing rapid population ageing, a significant increase in the median age of the population and growing demand for care.

Climate change poses significant challenges for Ethiopia, with both slow- and sudden-onset events increasingly affecting communities across the country.

Climate change poses significant challenges for the Philippines, with both slow- and sudden-onset events increasingly affecting communities across the country.

The international, African and regional communities have developed a range of frameworks and legal instruments that aim to prevent and combat TIP, protect and support VOTs and hold traffickers accountable.

This Migration Profile for Seychelles is the second of its kind, providing updated details on migration issues that have evolved since 2014.

Across all areas of social statistics as well as some areas of economic statistics there is a widespread and rapid trend towards the use of administrative sources, either to complement traditional census and survey sources, or to replace them. There are many advantages to this overall trend, including reduced respondent burden, faster production of statistics, and the concomitant reduced costs. There are also well-known drawbacks, such as a dependence on the content of administrative sources and the challenges in gathering data on subjective characteristics or other variables that are not recorded in administrative sources.

Climate change is increasingly recognized as a complex global challenge with far-reaching implications for human societies. Its effects extend beyond environmental impacts, affecting various aspects of human society, including economic systems, social structures and human rights. There is evidence suggesting a direct link between climate events and incidents of human trafficking, yet the precise mechanisms driving this relationship are not fully understood.
