Over 200 million individuals worldwide live outside their countries of birth. Remittances sent home to developing countries by migrants amount to $300 billion per year, far exceeding foreign aid flows and roughly equaling foreign direct investment. As a result, policymakers are increasingly interested in what policies can be pursued to enhance migration's development impacts. Yet much of the research on this topic to date has been largely removed from direct engagement with policy, and suffers from severe data limitations. In this panel, leading migration researchers and policymakers will discuss the frontier of research on this topic and some of the most promising efforts at maximizing the development impact of migration and remittances.
