In this workshop, we aim to introduce two types of big data, i.e., Google Trends and Twitter data. This workshop will be a great opportunity for the researchers in the study of migration but also demography in general to get familiar with two popular sources of data. We plan to begin the session by introducing the data format, related literature, empirical findings, advantages, and critical challenges of such data. We then plan to have more interactive sessions on how to retrieve these data and write and search inquiries.
