The earliest human migrations began with the spread of Homo erectus out of Africa about 1.75 million years ago, followed by Homo sapiens who colonized all of Africa and then moved out of the continent about 70,000 years ago, reaching most parts of the world by 40,000 years ago.

Use these wonderful, clear but nuanced picture books to introduce refugees and human migration to your littles! Four of my favorites: ❤️ Our World is a Family by Miry Whitehill and Jennifer Jackson: This new title explores how we are all connected, and the reasons some people move to a new community. As the book explains, "People everywhere want to feel safe and loved and important. But there are places in the world where it stops being safe for people to live. Sometimes it becomes so unsafe that children can't go to school and parents can't go to work and no one can play outside. When that happens, people might need to leave home and move to another part of the world." The pictures move with the gentle text, showing many families traveling in different ways to new homes, missing their old lives, adapting to their new ones, and families helping each other feel welcome with gestures of friendship and community. Illustrations are warm and inclusive. ❤️ What is a Refugee? by Elise Gravel: While the last title shows how people should ideally respond to refugees, this title, just as empathetic and clear, goes a little deeper, showing the varied reasons refugees must leave, and how other countries and people sometimes respond in less than welcoming ways - but also how we all can help. ❤️ Stepping Stones: a Refugee Family's Journey by Margriet Ruurs and Nizar Ali Badr: This book is the result of a partnership between the author and Syrian artist Badr, who makes his expressive images by arranging and photographing stones. In Arabic and English, the lyrical text and art tells the story of a displaced family journeying to a new life. Grows empathy! ❤️ Bright Star by Yuyi Morales: This Caldecott honorée and Belpré winning title is a poetic, art-infused metaphorical tale of a deer separated from her mother, which only at the end of the book to we discover is a metaphor for children at the US-México borderlands, child refugees separated from their parents, refused entry to safety together but carrying their love in their hearts. Textured, luminous mixed-media illustrations captivate readers from page one. #refugeeswelcome #refugees #humanmigration #immigration #books https://www.instagram.com/p/Cf5Jws7sIJU/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

[Paper] Abrupt onset of intensive human occupation 44,000 years ago on the threshold of Sahul

New archaeological evidence shows intensive human occupation in Timor 44,000 years ago, suggesting a major migration phase bypassing Timor for New Guinea. #southeeastasianarchaeology #HumanMigration #TimorLeste #PrehistoricSettlement

via Nature Communications, 22 May 2024: Paper by Shipton et al. describes new evidence of intensive human occupation in Timor-Leste around 44,000 years ago, marking a significant migration phase. The Laili site reveals that early humans likely bypassed Timor in initial migrations to Australia, instead using New Guinea. This discovery challenges previous theories and highlights a major…

[Paper] Prehistoric human migration between Sundaland and South Asia was driven by sea-level rise

via Communications Biology, 04 February 2023: This study traced prehistoric sea-level rise in Southeast Asia to human migrations. #sealevel #humanmigration #southeastasia

via Communications Biology, 04 February 2023: This study traced prehistoric sea-level rise in Southeast Asia to human migrations. Rapid sea-level rise between the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and the mid-Holocene transformed the Southeast Asian coastal landscape, but the impact on human demography remains unclear. Here, we create a paleogeographic map, focusing on sea-level changes during the…

Where everyone in the world is migrating—in one gorgeous chart By Nick Stockton

It’s no secret that the world’s population is on the move, but it’s rare to get a glimpse of where that flow is happening. In a study released in today’s Science, a team of geographers used data snapshots to create a broad analysis of global migrations over 20 years. The study was conducted by three geographic researchers from the Wittgenstein Centre for Demography and Global Human Capital in Vienna. The researchers presented their data in five-year increments, from 1990 to 2010. Their research is unique, because it turned static census counts from over 150 countries into a dynamic flow of human traffic. Migration data is counted in two ways: Stock and flow. “The stocks are the number of migrants living in a country,” says Nikola Sander, one of the study’s authors. Stock is relatively easy to get—you just count who is in the country at a given point of time. Flow is trickier. It’s the rate of human traffic over time. Keeping accurate account of where people are moving has stymied the UN, and researchers and policy-makers in general, for a while. The European Union keeps good track of migrant flows, but elsewhere the data are sparse. Static measurements are plentiful, but it is hard to use them to get a picture of how people are moving on a broad scale, because each country has its own methodology for collecting census data. Last year, however, the UN brought stock data from nearly 200 countries into harmony by erasing the methodological seams between them. To turn this stock data into five-year flow estimates, the researchers used statistical interpolations from stock data from the UN, taken mostly from 10-year country censuses, but supplemented with population registers and other national surveys. It’s not the poorest who migrate the most

While the results of the migration study aren’t particularly groundbreaking, there are two interesting insights: 1) Adjusted for population growth, the global migration rate has stayed roughly the same since around since 1995 (it was higher from 1990-1995). 2) It’s not the poorest countries sending people to the richest countries, it’s countries in transition—still poor, but with some education and mobility—that are the highest migratory contributors. “One of the conclusions they make in the paper, is the idea as countries develop, they continue to send more migrants, and at some point they become migrant-receiving regions themselves,” says Fernando Riosmena, a geographer from the University of Colorado, who did not contribute to this research, but is collaborating with one of the authors on a future paper. A few other noteworthy results: 1) The largest regional migration is from Southeast Asia to the Middle East. This is largely driven by the huge, oil-driven, construction booms happening on the Arabian Peninsula. 2) The biggest flow between individual countries is the steady stream from Mexico to the US. (In fact, the US is the largest single migrant destination) 3) There’s a huge circulation of migrants among sub-Saharan African countries. This migration dwarfs the number leaving Africa, but the media pay more attention the latter because of the austerity-driven immigration debates in Europe. Explore the world of migration

The data aren’t perfect. Riosmena points out that in countries that especially dislike migrants, like the US and Europe, numbers are often underreported. Still, he says, the data are a very good indication of the general trends. Also, amateur data sleuths be warned: Because these flow estimates are taken from 10-year static counts, they cannot be compared to the annual migrational flows that the UN publishes (which, as mentioned above, cannot be used to compare between countries). Sander says she hopes her data will change the way other researchers approach migration. “Inside the discipline, we hope that it’s going to be the basis for subsequent analysis of the impact of migration on population, on economies, on aging.” Sander and her colleagues have lined their data up with global remittance flows, and are analyzing what kind of patterns they can find therein. You can explore for yourself how regional flows have changed over the past 20 years with this awesome interactive, from Sander and her co-authors, Guy J. Abel & Ramon Bauer.
