This interactive map visualizes sex-disaggregated internal migration flows at the subnational level within low- and middle-income countries between the 2005-2010 period. The data is sourced from a collaboration between WorldPop, Flowminder, and the Asian Demographic Research Institute (ADRI). The methodology follows the approach described by Ceaușu et al. (2019).
Navigate the 3D map with ease: Use left-click to rotate, right-click to pan, and scroll to zoom in and out. Explore migration flows from every angle!
- Each arrow indicates movement from one subnational unit to another.
- The origin of migration is marked in red, and the destination in green.
- The tooltip provides detailed information, displaying the migration flow from a subnational region of origin to a subnational region of destination in that country.
- The number of males migrating and females migrating between these locations is also provided.
