Key democratic countries experienced “unprecedented” levels of migration in 2022, according to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, a forum of 38 developed nations focused on economic growth.
The approximately 6 million total permanent immigrants to OECD member countries in 2022 – which doesn’t include Ukrainian refugees – marked the highest level for the OECD since at least 2005. And preliminary figures for 2023 suggest a further increase, according to the organization.
The data, highlighted in a report released by the forum in late 2023, provides the most recent annual, long-term immigration statistics available by country, as well as a snapshot of long-term migration trends across OECD countries specifically, a group that includes many of the world’s wealthiest countries.
