Its geographical location and European Union membership act as a pull factor for migrants from neighbouring countries, including ethnic Hungarians living abroad. Hungary's accession to the European Union did not bring about the expected dramatic changes in the migration trends of the country. In fact, the number of those who seek asylum in Hungary has not grown, but continues to decrease. Furthermore, Hungary's accession to the Schengen Area and implementation of Schengen rules has created greater mobility accompanied by enhanced security measures. Young women and girls are trafficked to, from and through Hungary, and in effect through all countries in the region for the purpose of sexual and other forms of exploitation. Internal trafficking also occurs, and has even increased from rural areas with high unemployment in eastern Hungary.   http://www.iom.int/jahia/Jahia/activities/europe/central-europe/hungary

Facts and Figures 3.7 Poland Population (2010): 38 million HDI Rank (2007): 41 of 182 Net Migration Rate (2005-2010): -0.6 migrants /1,000 population Immigrants (2010): 2.2% Women as a Percentage of Immigrants (2010): 59.0% Total Labour Force (2006): 16,992,000 Foreign-born Labour Force (2006): 0.3% http://www.iom.int/jahia/Jahia/activities/europe/central-europe/poland The outflow of both high- and low-skilled labour from Poland, mainly to the United Kingdom and Ireland has stabilized; however, there is still a need for information campaigns among Poles living abroad on possibilities after coming back to their country of origin. As a consequence of shortages in the domestic labour market, Poland has also begun to look for strategies to attract foreign labour to the country. The inflow of a growing number of foreigners to Poland will result in initiatives promoting the integration of migrants into the host society. As integration is a two-way process, it is also important to address the need for greater awareness and recognition of the positive impact migrants have on Poland. The aim of IOM's migration health activities is to manage the health consequences of migration for the benefit of migrants as well as host communities. IOM, together with its partners, will continue to support efforts to reduce irregular migration and combat trafficking in human beings as well as the exploitation of migrants.
