Migration projects produce the overwhelming portion of the resources that enable IOM to function, to innovate and design forward-looking migration management solutions, concepts, to seize new opportunities and to respond to the increasing demands of its Member States and migrants. Projects and Country Offices that develop those projects are the bedrock of the Organization without which it would not have the resources to operate. Given the diverse nature of migration, IOM's more tha​n 2,000 individual projects (in 2010) vary in content, structure and size but as a whole represent the nerve centre of IOM's annual activities. In 2010, more than 97 percent of IOM's total income (USD 1.3 billion) was generated through project activities.​​
