 Surveys of migration and remittances
 Survey of African diaspora in Belgium

In preparation of Global Economic Prospects 2006, three surveys were implemented in Belgium, during March-April 2005, to collect information on household characteristics, migration and remittances from households in which at least one person was born in, respectively, the Dem. Republic of Congo, Nigeria and Senegal. The heads of Diaspora networks from these countries nominated volunteers from their respective communities to act as interviewers and provided the lists of household members to be contacted for interviews.
