HumMingBird is a Horizon 2020 research programme that aims to improve the mapping and understanding of changing migration flows. The research analyses patterns, motivations and new geographies, and tests new methods to forecast emerging and future trends.

In order to fulfil the ambitious objectives, HumMingBird (16 partners and 10 countries) brings together research parties/universities, SMEs, private companies, NGO networks, a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC). The multidisciplinary consortium combines a wide range of scientific disciplines (from anthropology and political sciences to statistics, telecom engineering and computer sciences), diversified experience, knowledge and networks.
