Data
Although women's mobility accounts for a large and increasing proportion of international migration, it has generally been overlooked in the literature. Quantifying and characterizing female migration is clearly a next step on the path to a better understanding of the forces that shape the international migration of people. In this paper, we build an original data set providing gender disaggregated indicators of international migration by educational attainment for 195 source countries in 1990 and 2000. The findings show that women represent an increasing share of the OECD immigration stock and exhibit relatively higher skilled emigration rates than men. The gender gap in high-skill migration is strongly correlated with the gender gap in educational attainment at origin.
