Os estados são responsáveis ​​por fornecer proteção social aos seus cidadãos e, em um contexto migratório, são os países de destino os principais responsáveis. No entanto, as limitações na cobertura e acesso dos migrantes deram origem a uma infinidade de medidas informais, incluindo aquelas oriundas de comunidades transnacionais e diásporas que sustentam famílias e comunidades por meio de redes pessoais, garantindo acesso a cuidados de saúde, educação, aposentadoria e segurança social.
