Abstract The determinants of migration have been widely studied but research has rarely addressed the roles of food insecurity and gender in the migration decision process. To address these gaps, we examine these relationships for 135,078 individuals across 94 low- and middle-income countries. We use a series of binary-choice models with sample selection and data from the 2014–2015 waves of the Gallup World Poll Survey, which includes the first global measure of individual-level food insecurity. Results, which are robust, indicate that food insecurity is an important determinant of both migration intentions and preparations, and the probability of migration intentions increase monotonically with the severity of food insecurity, and the probability of migration preparations decrease. These relationships also differ significantly by gender and level of gross national income. Evidence suggests a need for increased coordination between the international food security and migration policy agendas.

低收入和中等收入国家的粮食不安全、性别和国际移民
摘要 迁移的决定因素已被广泛研究,但研究很少涉及粮食不安全和性别在迁移决策过程中的作用。为了解决这些差距,我们检查了 94 个低收入和中等收入国家的 135,078 个人的这些关系。我们使用一系列二元选择模型以及来自 2014-2015 年盖洛普世界民意调查的样本选择和数据,其中包括个人层面粮食不安全的第一个全球衡量标准。结果稳健,表明粮食不安全是迁移意图和准备的重要决定因素,迁移意图的概率随着粮食不安全的严重程度单调增加,迁移准备的概率降低。这些关系也因性别和国民总收入水平而显着不同。证据表明需要加强国际粮食安全和移民政策议程之间的协调。
