Migrants

The world is on the move. There are 244 million people living outside their country of birth, according to new United Nations data, the highest figure ever recorded and an increase of 71 million since 2000. By 2050, that number could go as high as 590 million, according to U.N. projections, fed by war and economic deprivation in the poorest countries with the highest birthrates.
