    The Afghanistan Migration Profile is a tool to be used to enhance policy coherence, evidence-based policymaking and the mainstreaming of migration into development planning. It was prepared in consultation with a broad range of government and non-government stakeholders.

    The Migration Profile contains a lot of information, which is structured in five main parts:

    Part A: Afghanistan – A Country in Context
    Part B: Migration Trends and Migrant Characteristics
    Part C: Impacts of Migration
    Part D: Migration Governance
    Part E: Key Findings, Policy Implications and Recommendations.
