Question 5

How reliable is Google Trends data for understanding this?

Accepted Answer

Google Trends shows relative interest over time—not precise numbers. It’s great for identifying what people are searching more or less, when, and roughly where. But it doesn’t tell you how many people searched exactly.

Question 6

What should stakeholders (e.g. sports bodies, migration policy makers) take away?

Accepted Answer

For sports bodies: capitalize on the interest by scheduling high-visibility matches, streaming & content sharing. For policymakers: clear communication around travel, visa, remittance policies resonates with public interest; making that info accessible can reduce misinformation.
