E-Library
on Migration Information Resources in the Middle East
The "e-Library on Migration Resources in the Middle East"
is a web-based archive containing resources on migration-related
information in the Middle East. By using a search engine in English
and Arabic, users can browse through more than 600 papers, statistics,
maps and other relevant documents regarding migration in the Middle
East.
The website will be updated on a regular basis, with information
about a wide range of migration-related topics such as: migrant
trafficking, diasporas, internally displaced persons, labor migration,
legislation, migrants' rights, migration and development, migration
health, migration policies of receiving and sending countries, refugees,
remittances, return migration and reintegration.
The purpose of the e-Library is to contribute to the overall understanding
of migration in the Middle East and to improve access to migration
resources such as studies and documents. Its primary audience is
constituted by IOM, governments, regional institutions and others
interested in conceptualizing, designing and developing migration
management interventions in the region.
The geographical area covered by the e-Library includes the Arab
Mashreq (Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, the Palestinian Territories,
and Syria), as well as the Arabian Peninsula (Bahrain, Saudi Arabia,
Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Yemen).
