Contextual factors shaping progress towards global migration goals

Two datasets for the analysis of the information extracted from qualitative migration scenarios published between 2008 and 2023 with the goal of studying which socioeconomic, environmental, political, and technological changes can promote progress towards the 23 objectives contained in the Global Compact for safe, orderly, and regular migration. Data in the file fullmetadata.xlsx contain meta information on the scenarios and the publications in which they appeared, including the names of the authors, the scenario names, and their time and geographic coverage. Data in the file fulldataextraction contain information about the objectives in the Global Compact for Migration towards which authors noted potential progress in each scenario. It also contains information about the drivers that characterize each scenario.
