12/02/2025 – Seminar: A global transnational mobility dataset (hybrid)

Did you know that international migration accounts for less than 1% of total transnational travel worldwide? 

The next MPC seminar will feature a presentation of a groundbreaking dataset that enables the analysis of the volume, directions, and shifts in transnational travel over nearly three decades (from 1995 to 2022). 

Some insights: 

  • Researchers estimate that total transnational mobility surged from 4.87 billion trips in 1995 to 9.64 billion in 2019. 
  • International migration constitutes just 0.15% of all transnational travel in Europe. 
  • Most border crossings are intra-regional, particularly in Europe. 

Register for the seminar to learn more about this dataset, which will serve as a valuable resource for studying global phenomena in fields such as migration, tourism studies, sustainability, epidemiology, international economics, and international relations.
