Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the current study is based on major contribution of population sciences including discipline of demography in the terms of refugee migration governance and policy, which utilizes steps for collecting data rather than assumption or myths in order to constitute management of refugees. The intersection between policy sciences and population sciences literature have a potential to outline future scenarios of populations and communities around the world including national, regional, social and environmental dynamics. There is an important role of analytic approach in enhancing capacity for demographic data collection concerning the refugee and forced migration, which enlightens policy development theoretically about adaptation and integration with operational and administrative processes. The foundations of international governmental organizations like UNHCR, Department of Economic and Social Affairs Population Division within the body of United Nations (UN), ILO, and International Organization for Migration (IOM) have essential frameworks for the policy relevant to refugee research.
