From the early journeys of prehistoric humans to the globe-spanning travel of today's migrants, migration has been a
constant thread running through the tapestry of human history. Indeed, migration is the history of civilization and humans—
of ideas and cultures that travel, and of people moving in pursuit of a better life.

These compelling stories attest to our remarkable ability to-overcome environmental
and physical barriers and adapt to new social, political and ecological realities. This
remarkable resilience and determination has seen humans expand from an estimated
original 10,000-20,000 individuals to more than six billion today. The story of our
migration will never end so long as the human race continues.
