In the talk „Scanning migration horizons” we explore some of the main sources of migration uncertainty across a range of time horizons. We look at the implications of uncertainty not only for understanding migratory processes, but also for preparing adequate and realistic policy responses and for robust migration governance. From nowcasts and early warnings, through forecasts, to long-range migration scenarios, we will discuss some of the recent methodological developments for studying current and future migration. The discussion focus on the limits of knowledge, and on what new tools and data sources can illuminate. We conclude by offering health warnings for the use of forward-looking tools for analysing migration, especially important given the high degree of politicisation of the topic.
