Lecture room, Niagara:A0406

Description

This parallel session offers a dialogue about experiences in collecting and disseminating information about human mobility, which aims to establish dialogue and exchange of experiences between institutions, bringing different perspectives on the theme. From Brazil, we intend to present three initiatives that bring together data collection, the Brazilian Emigration Observatory and the CPLP Migration Observatory, which together provide information on migration in general and the Community of Portuguese-speaking Countries. Brazil's third initiative will be the proposal to create a migration information network, which aims to systematize information on international migration for access by a broader public. Of Cape Verde, we intend to discuss the mechanisms implemented for the collection and dissemination of information that involve the creation of the Cape Verde Migration Observatory. Thus, the session proposal seeks to expand the discussions initiated in the two previous forums and on the concrete basis of initiatives in the process of implementation, to discuss the possibilities of exchanging experiences in the production and dissemination of information on human mobility within the scope of CPLP countries.
