Did you or someone you know migrate from Dominica (for a short time, or an extended period) after Hurricane Maria? Are you still out there? Or have you returned? What was your experience like?
If you left Dominica in the first 6 months after Hurricane Maria (before the end of February 2018), the International Organization for Migration (IOM) solicits your participation in a confidential study to help build greater understanding.
IOM is conducting the study “A Review of Post Hurricane Maria Migration” on behalf of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Planning, Resilience, Sustainable Development, Telecommunications and Broadcasting. The study will seek to identify the reasons people migrated, how their movements were facilitated, and how they fared in the countries which hosted them. The exercise is intended to contribute to a better understanding of environmental migration, facilitate development planning and contribute to evidence-based policy making in Dominica.
The multi-lingual survey is being rolled out for adults and children, in close collaboration with authorities in the education and local government sectors and is also available directly on the IOM Dominica Facebook page, or at the links below. Please complete if it is relevant to you, and pass on to other individuals you know, as all contributions will be extremely important.
We thank you for accessing the survey links below (in English, Spanish, and Creole): They are accessible till midnight of June 30th, 2020.
