This report aims to evaluate the representativity of the data collected for Work Package 3 of the EU HORIZON project ”DYNAMIG” on migration decision making, which uses social media (Meta) to recruit survey participants. We analyze official statistics and existing survey data, such as Gallup World Poll and Afrobarometer, for our target countries Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, Tunisia, and Senegal. We document selection patterns when relying solely on individuals with internet access in existing and our own preliminary survey data from Kenya and Nigeria and discuss the implications for data-driven analysis.
