* The SICREMI report is unique in the Hemisphere

Contribution of the SICREMI to measuring international migration

• SICREMI is a high value-added project:

individual contribution of information from each country

→ regional report

• La sistematización de los registros administrativos y la periodicidad anual de los informes es una ventaja comparativa del proyecto SICREMI

Contribution of the SICREMI to measuring international migration

• The SICREMI follows the methodological model of the Permanent Observation System on Migration (SOPEMI) of the Organization for Economic Cooperation for Development (OECD)

• The strategy to collect data, compile and generate information is based on a national correspondents’ network
