Abstract

Kerala Migration Survey (KMS) 2014 is the sixth in the series of studies on international and internal migration from Kerala undertaken by the Centre for Development Studies as an ongoing project since 1998. The present report sheds further light on the various issues concerning migration and mobility in the region. It gathers the fruit of nearly two decades of work done at the Centre for Development Studies and poses a collection of chapters on various migration dynamics, from demographic, economic and socio-political perspectives. As with previous studies, the 2014 study is also based on primary data collected from about 15,000 households selected at random by a stratified multistage random sampling technique covering all the 63 taluks in the state. The 15000 sample households in KMS 2014, included 5000 panel households which were surveyed in earlier surveys, thereby generating a longitudinal panel data base on migration and remittances.
