Why this platform exists

Irregular migration is widely discussed, but reliable figures can be hard to find quickly, and harder still to verify. This monitor focuses on clarity: figures are shown with their official provenance.

The aim is not to sensationalise migration, but to provide a factual foundation for public debate, research, and policy-making.

Methodology & sources

This dashboard reports irregular migration statistics using figures published by official government and international sources. The platform does not model, estimate, or project migration flows. Instead, it automatically monitors public data releases, detects updates, and republishes the reported numbers in a standardised format. All figures remain subject to revision by the original publishing authority and should be interpreted in line with each source’s definitions and reporting practices.
