Abstract

The Public Database on Irregular Migration Stock Estimates (the Database) provides an inventory and critical appraisal of country-level estimates of irregular migration stocks in 13 European countries, the United States and Canada for the period 2008 to 2023. It is a deliverable of the MIrreM project, which is a follow-up to Clandestino. Clandestino covered the period 2000-2008. Users of the Database are advised to consult the following companion documents: The README File (version 2), which can be accessed alongside the Database, and contains contextual and technical information about the Database.
