Human Mobility
Building better outcomes for migrants, refugees, internally displaced persons, asylum seekers, and others alongside the communities that host them.
CSIS generates research and recommendations for U.S. government and multilateral policymakers, development and humanitarian assistance practitioners, private sector actors, and others interested in human mobility issues. CSIS experts seek to align U.S. national security interests with international human mobility-related frameworks, guided by the belief that protecting vulnerable people on the move allows us to secure our collective futures. This work is primarily undertaken by the Project on Prosperity and Development, though other programs like the Humanitarian Agenda, Global Food Security Program, and Global Health Policy Center also contribute toward this mission.
