Concept notes and papers
This report summarises the results of a global mapping exercise of local authorities’ M&D practices conducted by the Joint Migration and Development Initiative (JMDI). The study is based on the consultations and face-to face meetings held with over 2,000 stakeholders active in the field, as well as on a thorough analysis of more than 80 M&D initiatives carried out by local authorities. While the current migration and development agenda is mostly conducted and framed at the national and international levels, this report makes the case that local authorities are the missing piece in the global M&D puzzle.
