About 90 million women currently reside outside their country of origin, representing half the world's international migrants. This survey gives a gender perspective on migration, focusing on the increasing trend for the international migration of women, including voluntary migrants who migrate on their own or to join or accompany family members, as well as those forced to flee from conflict, persecution, environmental degradation, natural disasters and other situations that affect their habitat, livelihood and security. Topics discussed include: gender perspectives on the causes and consequences of migration; poverty reduction and sustainable development; family and labour migration; refugees and displaced persons; human trafficking and smuggling for prostitution and forced labour; health issues and HIV/AIDS; gender roles and integration of migration women.
