What This Asylum Origin Figure Means
This game compares asylum-seekers relative to the population of their country of origin.
- The numerator is the World Bank indicator for asylum-seekers by country of origin.
- The game scales that count per 1,000 residents using total population.
- Raw counts tell you which countries are big. Per-capita outflow tells you where ordinary life is being exited at scale.
A country can lose people quietly long before the headlines call it a crisis.
