See this Data Explorer for further information on the sampling and themes covered in the surveys. We conducted face-to-face representative surveys with prospective migrants and their families in Senegal (Dakar and Casamance regions), the Gambia, and Nigeria (Edo state).
In late 2026, we will conduct another face-to-face survey with Moroccan prospective migrants and their families in northern Morocco.
