According to the World Bank, emigrants’ remittances are expected to reach $774 billion in 2022 of which $605 billion is expected to go to low and middle income countries, surpassing both foreign aid and foreign investment. In recognition of the importance of remittances, the International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD) designated June 16th as International Day of Family Remittances in 2016 and the UN General Assembly subsequently followed suit.

While families at home benefit economically from remittances, there is an emotional toll due to the separation of the family and immigrant. Speakers will cover both the economic and emotional aspects of remittances and migration.
