Today there is considerable study and discussion on the link between labour mobility and development. This increased level of research has also been mirrored in greater interest among policymakers. In October 2013 the United Nations General Assembly held a High-level Dialogue on Migration and Development for the second time, building on the progress since the first Dialogue in 2006. The Dialogue acknowledged the important contribution of migration in realizing the Millennium Development Goals, and recognized that human mobility is a key factor for sustainable development which should be considered in the elaboration of the post-2015 development agenda. Participants adopted an eight point agenda for action: “Making Migration Work.”
