African Climate Mobility Initiative (ACMI): Bilateral Migration Projections
The African Climate Mobility Initiative (ACMI): Bilateral Migration Projections consists of projections for bilateral migration flows at 5-year intervals from 2015 to 2050 for a combination of 2 sets of Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) scenarios and 3 sets of Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) scenarios. The Unit of analysis for the projections are directed migration corridor from an origin country to a sending country on the African continent (there are 46 African countries, thus 2,070 unique directed corridors). These data underpin the African Shift reports that were produced by the Africa Climate Mobility Initiative (ACMI) and released under the auspices of the United Nations (UN) Global Center on Climate Migration (GCCM). The ACMI is a joint initiative of the African Union Commission (AUC), the United Nations Development Fund (UNDP), and the World Bank.
