MMP-LAMP co-directors Giorguli and Lindstrom presented results from the Ethnosurvey of Recent Immigration in Latinamerican Destinations (LAMP-ENIR 2021) at the Universidad Militar Nueva Granada, Bogotá, Colombia. Lindstrom also conducted a workshop on the use of the MMP-LAMP data for students and researchers.

In June and August 2024, MMP interviewers completed surveys in one community in the state of Mexico, and in two communities in the state of Morelos. Survey interviews were also completed with migrants from the communities now resident in the United States. Data from the surveys should be part of the MMP public use data bases by March 2025.

On March 7, 2024 Lindstrom gave the presentation Estimates of Annual Total Spending by Mexican Migrants on Smuggler Fees for Mexico-U.S. Border Crossings 1980-2008.

The MMP-LAMP study design and data bases were featured in the December 9-10, 2024 institute on "The Study of Recent Migration in Latin America: New Sources of Information and the Use of the Ethnoquestionnaire for the Analysis of Migation Histories" at the Congress of the Latin American Population Association (ALAP) held in Bogota, Colombia.
