Introduction<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Types of migration when selecting a theme, it is important to distinguish different forms of movement and migration. Globally, many more people move within borders than across them. Those who move across borders tend to stay in the region of the source country. There are ongoing debates on how different forms of movement can be classified, as they do not always have clear demarcations.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Movement can be: within or across borders; voluntary (for work, study or family reasons) or forced (as a result of conflict or natural disasters); regular (with documentation) or irregular (without documentation); and temporary, seasonal or longer term\/permanent. Definitions can change during the process. For example, if a person on a seasonal work contract overstays her contract, she may become an undocumented migrant. In some instances, whole communities may be impelled to move due to conflict or natural disasters. If they remain within national borders, they are referred to as Internally displaced people (IDPs). If they cross international borders, they can become asylum seekers. If asylum is granted under the UN Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees (1951), they are known as refugees. Age, gender, ethnicity and socioeconomic circumstances also influence the migration experience. Related policies and\u00a0<\/span>institutions should reflect these variations. Report themes can emphasize cultural, environmental or geographical factors, or the consequence of conflict or natural disasters. Report teams may decide to focus on particular groups of migrants, such as youth, women, minorities, etc., and\/or forms of migration, such as labour migration, including seasonal migration; student migration; forced displacement; etc.(IOM. 2005).<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Some communities or ethnic groups may be more affected by mobility, or the lack of it, than others. Many different forms of migration may affect one particular group. Remittance patterns and their impact can vary depending on whether or not a family moves together. In many countries, several types of movement exist, including internal, emigration, immigration, return, seasonal, transit, regular, irregular and forced. In Russia, for example, there are relatively large numbers of internal migrants. It is also a destination for labour migrants from Central Asia and Eastern Europe. At the same time, it is a transit country for regular and irregular migration passing through Russia to Western Europe\u2014a picture not unlike Mexico\u2019s (UNDP 2010).<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-175\" src=\"http:\/\/antp12.epgpbooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"638\" height=\"479\" \/>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Source: https:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/rasyidatulnajwa7\/human-migration-66884364<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n<strong>\u00a0 \u00a0 2. Mobility, Movement and Migration<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">International migration refers to the movement of people across national borders, whereas internal migration involves the movement of people within borders. In different country contexts, however, and in different languages, the phrase \u201cmigration\u201d can have different meanings. For example, it may connote only international migration, or a more specific type of movement, such as permanent migration from one country to another. The use of other terms such as \u201cmobility\u201d and \u201cmovement,\u201d or more specific phrases such as \u201ctemporary\u201d or \u201cseasonal labour migration\u201d may more clearly describe the form of movement under discussion. This can sometimes help to clarify issues and facilitate more constructive dialogue, especially in countries where the movement of people is a particularly sensitive topic. Report teams can emphasize the freedoms and choices of mobility, and help place discussions on movement and migration within a broader context of basic rights.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">3. Illegal vs. Irregular and Undocumented<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Some policy makers, media outlets, and other groups may either intentionally, or out of habit, use incorrect and derogatory terms such as \u201cillegal migration,\u201d \u201cillegal migrants,\u201d \u201cillegal aliens\u201d or even \u201cillegals\u201d to describe the movement of people. This type of language is inappropriate, and can exacerbate xenophobia, discrimination and the misperception that migrants are closely associated with criminal activities. Throughout the report process, teams should introduce more appropriate terminology, such as \u201cirregular migration\u201d or \u201cundocumented migrants\u201d to refer to people travelling or residing in a country without proper documentation, including those who overstay. These terms cover asylum seekers, victims of trafficking and others whose status is yet to be determined.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">4. Smuggled vs. Trafficked<\/strong><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Report teams should differentiate between \u201csmuggled\u201d and \u201ctrafficked.\u201d Some groups use the two terms interchangeably, which has serious implications for the people concerned. A trafficked person is a victim of human rights violations recognized by international law. Victims have the legal right to protection and in some instances compensation. A person who is smuggled by definition colludes with the smuggler and commits a criminal offence by consciously entering another state\u2019s territory without proper documentation. He or she is subject to deportation. If these terms are used interchangeably, the public perception of trafficked victims may be incorrectly anchored in the belief that the victim is a criminal, and his or her treatment may be affected accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">According to the \u201cRecommendations on Statistics of International Migration\u201d by the United Nations Statistics Division (1998), long-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least one year, so that the country of destination effectively becomes their new country of usual residence. Short-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least three months but less than one year except in cases where the movement to that country is for purposes of recreation, holiday, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment, or religious pilgrimage (UN Statistics Division, 1998).<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">5.

The top immigration countries, relative to population, are Qatar (87 percent), Monaco (72 percent), the United Arab Emirates (70 percent), Kuwait (69 percent), and Andorra (64 percent).<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u25a0 The United States has seen the largest inflows of migrants between 2005 and 2010. There was a surge of migrant flows to Spain, Italy, and the United Kingdom, mainly from Eastern Europe as well as Latin America and North Africa. The six Gulf Cooperation Council countries (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates) have also seen a significant increase in migrant flows in the past few years, mostly from South Asia and East Asia. However, new migration flows in all regions have weakened because of the global financial crisis.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u25a0 The volume of South\u2013South migration (migration between developing countries) is larger than migration from the South to high-income countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). High-income non-OECD countries such as the Gulf countries are also major destinations for migrants from the South. South\u2013South migration is significantly larger than migration from the South to high-income OECD countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (73 percent) and Europe and Central Asia (61 percent).<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u25a0 According to available official data, Mexico\u2013United States is the largest migration corridor in the world, accounting for 11.6 million migrants in 2010.

The share of refugees in the migrant population was 14.6 percent in low-income countries compared with 2.1 percent in high-income OECD countries. The Middle East and North Africa region had the largest share of refugees and asylum seekers among immigrants (65 percent), followed by South Asia (20 percent), Sub-Saharan Africa (17 percent), and East Asia and Pacific (8.8 percent).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 In 2010, worldwide remittance flows are estimated to have exceeded $440 billion. From that amount, developing countries received $325 billion, which represents an increase of 6 percent from the 2009 level. The true size, including unrecorded flows through formal and informal channels, is believed to be significantly larger. Recorded remittances in 2009 were nearly three times the amount of official aid and almost as large as foreign direct investment (FDI) flows to developing countries.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0\u00a0 In 2010, the top recipient countries of recorded remittances were India, China, Mexico, the Philippines, and France. As a share of GDP , however, smaller countries such as Tajikistan (35 percent), Tonga (28 percent), Lesotho (25 percent), Moldova (31 percent), and Nepal (23 percent) were the largest recipients in 2009.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0\u00a0 High-income countries are the main source of remittances.

Consequences of Migration<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Frequent and timely monitoring of migration and remittance trends can provide policy makers, researchers, and the development community with the tools to make informed decisions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Cross-country analysis and evidence from household surveys suggest that migration and remittances reduce poverty in the origin communities. Remittances lead to increased investments in health, education, and small businesses. At the same time, the loss of skills associated with migration can hamper development and delivery of basic services in sending countries. The diaspora of developing countries can be a source of capital, trade, investment, knowledge, and technology transfers.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Resilience of Remittance Flows Relative to Other Types of Flows during the Global Financial Crisis Despite a modest decline in remittance in flows to developing countries, these flows have remained more resilient compared with private debt and equity flows and foreign direct investment. There are several reasons for the resilience of remittances in the face of economic downturns in host countries:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Remittances are sent by the cumulated flows of migrants over the years, not only by the new migrants of the past year or two. This makes remittances persistent over time. If new migration stops, then over a period of a decade or so, remittances may stop growing. But they will continue to increase as long as migration flows continue.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Remittances are a small part of migrants\u2019 incomes, and migrants continue to send remittances when affected by income shocks.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Because of a rise in anti-immigration sentiments and tighter border controls in the United States and Europe, the duration of migration appears to have increased. Those migrants staying back are likely to continue to send remittances.<\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: justify\">If migrants do indeed return, they are likely to take back accumulated savings. This may have been the case in India during the Gulf war of 1990\u201391, which forced a large number of Indian workers in the Gulf to return home (Ratha 2003, 163). Also the \u201csafe haven\u201d factor, or \u201chome bias,\u201d can cause remittances for investment purposes to return home during an economic downturn in the host country.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u00a0 \u00a0 REMITTANCES<\/span>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 Top 10 remittance recipients in 2010 (billions): India ($55.0 bn), China ($51.0 bn), Mexico ($22.6 bn), Philippines ($21.3 bn), France ($15.9 bn), and Germany ($11.6 bn),<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Source \u2013 Migration and Remittances Factbook, 2011.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Abuse and fraud by private recruiters. Intermediaries, or \u201cmiddlemen,\u201d play an important role in facilitating labour migration. The cost of their services, however, can be high. In some cases, migrants find after moving that their contract does not exist, there have been changes to their contract, or there are serious violations related to personal safety and working conditions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Domestic, bilateral, regional and international migration regimes that may limit regular migration\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">options through quotas and requirements for entry, family mobility, and conversion of status from temporary to permanent despite high demand, particularly for low-skilled and seasonal workers in agriculture, construction, manufacturing and services. As a result, some people may choose more costly, higher-risk options to gain admission or overstay at destination; there may also be cases where irregular migration may be less costly.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">As noted by the 2009 global report, migration can have a mixed impact on traditional gender roles in migrant households: \u201cWhen women move, this can change traditional roles, especially those surrounding the care of children and the elderly. When men migrate, rural women can be empowered by their absence: field studies conducted in Ecuador, Ghana, India, Madagascar and Moldova all found that, with male migration, rural women increased their participation in community decision-making.\u201d At the same time, in some households, the burden on women as caretakers may increase, or, when a male migrant returns, traditional norms may come back into place.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">One of the more commonly discussed forms of fallout from migration, and a key concern for many source governments, especially for small and less developed states, involves broader changes in workforce composition, or the so-called \u201cbrain-drain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 1em;text-align: initial\">The global report noted that \u201cmobility can have profound consequences for social, class and ethnic hierarchies in origin communities if lower status groups gain access to substantially higher income streams.\u201d In addition to higher income, return migrants and communication networks can transfer ideas and practices back to communities of origin. These \u201csocial\u201d remittances can help spread knowledge in households and across communities on issues related to health, nutrition and hygiene, more empowering gender roles, lower fertility rates, greater educational expectations for girls and female labour force participation. Frequent return visits and\/or collective diaspora and return migrant initiatives can also affect patterns of political and social participation. There can be negative social aspects as well. Mobility can at times serve as a vehicle for the more rapid transmission of HIV and AIDS, for example. The deportation of youth from the United States back to Central America has been linked to the export of gangs and gang cultures.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">When migrant skills complement those of locally born workers, both groups may benefit, although the results may be mixed.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Rapid urbanization, which is frequently fed by internal migration, can cause challenges for destination communities, as well as migrants.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">12. Summary<\/strong><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">According to the \u201cRecommendations on Statistics of International Migration\u201d by the United Nations Statistics Division (1998), long-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least one year, so that the country of destination effectively becomes their new country of usual residence. Short-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least three months but less than one year except in cases where the movement to that country is for purposes of recreation, holiday, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment, or religious pilgrimage.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Globally, many more people move within borders than across them. Those who move across borders tend to stay in the region of the source country.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Movement can be: within or across borders; voluntary (for work, study or family reasons) or forced (as a result of conflict or natural disasters); regular (with documentation) or irregular (without documentation); and temporary, seasonal or longer term\/permanent.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">In some instances, whole communities may be impelled to move due to conflict or natural disasters. If they remain within national borders, they are referred to as Internally displaced people (IDPs). If they cross international borders, they can become asylum seekers. If asylum is granted under the UN Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees they are known as refugees.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">International migration refers to the movement of people across national borders, whereas internal migration involves the movement of people within borders. In different country contexts, however, and in different languages, the phrase \u201cmigration\u201d can have different meanings. In many countries, several types of movement exist, including internal, emigration, immigration, return, seasonal, transit, regular, irregular and forced.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">According to migration and remittances factbook 2011 more than 215 million people, or 3 percent of the world population, live outside their countries of birth. Current migration flows, relative to population, are weaker than those of the last decades of the nineteenth century.<\/span><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Cross-country analysis and evidence from household surveys suggest that migration and remittances reduce poverty in the origin communities.

Globally, many more people move within borders than across them. Those who move across borders tend to stay in the region of the source country. There are ongoing debates on how different forms of movement can be classified, as they do not always have clear demarcations.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Movement can be: within or across borders; voluntary (for work, study or family reasons) or forced (as a result of conflict or natural disasters); regular (with documentation) or irregular (without documentation); and temporary, seasonal or longer term\/permanent. Definitions can change during the process. For example, if a person on a seasonal work contract overstays her contract, she may become an undocumented migrant. In some instances, whole communities may be impelled to move due to conflict or natural disasters. If they remain within national borders, they are referred to as Internally displaced people (IDPs). If they cross international borders, they can become asylum seekers. If asylum is granted under the UN Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees (1951), they are known as refugees. Age, gender, ethnicity and socioeconomic circumstances also influence the migration experience. Related policies and\u00a0<\/span>institutions should reflect these variations. Report themes can emphasize cultural, environmental or geographical factors, or the consequence of conflict or natural disasters. Report teams may decide to focus on particular groups of migrants, such as youth, women, minorities, etc., and\/or forms of migration, such as labour migration, including seasonal migration; student migration; forced displacement; etc.(IOM. 2005).<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Some communities or ethnic groups may be more affected by mobility, or the lack of it, than others. Many different forms of migration may affect one particular group. Remittance patterns and their impact can vary depending on whether or not a family moves together. In many countries, several types of movement exist, including internal, emigration, immigration, return, seasonal, transit, regular, irregular and forced. In Russia, for example, there are relatively large numbers of internal migrants. It is also a destination for labour migrants from Central Asia and Eastern Europe. At the same time, it is a transit country for regular and irregular migration passing through Russia to Western Europe\u2014a picture not unlike Mexico\u2019s (UNDP 2010).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-175\" src=\"http:\/\/antp12.epgpbooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"638\" height=\"479\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ebooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/antp12\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51.png 638w, https:\/\/ebooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/antp12\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/ebooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/antp12\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51-65x49.png 65w, https:\/\/ebooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/antp12\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51-225x169.png 225w, https:\/\/ebooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/antp12\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/192\/2019\/03\/Untitled-51-350x263.png 350w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Source: https:\/\/www.slideshare.net\/rasyidatulnajwa7\/human-migration-66884364<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><strong>\u00a0 \u00a0 2. Mobility, Movement and Migration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">International migration refers to the movement of people across national borders, whereas internal migration involves the movement of people within borders. In different country contexts, however, and in different languages, the phrase \u201cmigration\u201d can have different meanings. For example, it may connote only international migration, or a more specific type of movement, such as permanent migration from one country to another. The use of other terms such as \u201cmobility\u201d and \u201cmovement,\u201d or more specific phrases such as \u201ctemporary\u201d or \u201cseasonal labour migration\u201d may more clearly describe the form of movement under discussion. This can sometimes help to clarify issues and facilitate more constructive dialogue, especially in countries where the movement of people is a particularly sensitive topic. Report teams can emphasize the freedoms and choices of mobility, and help place discussions on movement and migration within a broader context of basic rights.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">3. Illegal vs. Irregular and Undocumented<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Some policy makers, media outlets, and other groups may either intentionally, or out of habit, use incorrect and derogatory terms such as \u201cillegal migration,\u201d \u201cillegal migrants,\u201d \u201cillegal aliens\u201d or even \u201cillegals\u201d to describe the movement of people. This type of language is inappropriate, and can exacerbate xenophobia, discrimination and the misperception that migrants are closely associated with criminal activities. Throughout the report process, teams should introduce more appropriate terminology, such as \u201cirregular migration\u201d or \u201cundocumented migrants\u201d to refer to people travelling or residing in a country without proper documentation, including those who overstay. These terms cover asylum seekers, victims of trafficking and others whose status is yet to be determined.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">4. Smuggled vs. Trafficked<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Report teams should differentiate between \u201csmuggled\u201d and \u201ctrafficked.\u201d Some groups use the two terms interchangeably, which has serious implications for the people concerned. A trafficked person is a victim of human rights violations recognized by international law. Victims have the legal right to protection and in some instances compensation. A person who is smuggled by definition colludes with the smuggler and commits a criminal offence by consciously entering another state\u2019s territory without proper documentation. He or she is subject to deportation. If these terms are used interchangeably, the public perception of trafficked victims may be incorrectly anchored in the belief that the victim is a criminal, and his or her treatment may be affected accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">According to the \u201cRecommendations on Statistics of International Migration\u201d by the United Nations Statistics Division (1998), long-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least one year, so that the country of destination effectively becomes their new country of usual residence. Short-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least three months but less than one year except in cases where the movement to that country is for purposes of recreation, holiday, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment, or religious pilgrimage (UN Statistics Division, 1998).<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">5.

South\u2013South migration is significantly larger than migration from the South to high-income OECD countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (73 percent) and Europe and Central Asia (61 percent).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u25a0 According to available official data, Mexico\u2013United States is the largest migration corridor in the world, accounting for 11.6 million migrants in 2010. Migration corridors in the former Soviet Union\u2014 Russia\u2013Ukraine and Ukraine\u2013Russia\u2014are the next largest, followed by Bangladesh\u2013India; in\u00a0<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">these corridors, many natives became migrants without moving when new international boundaries were drawn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 Smaller countries tend to have higher rates of skilled emigration. Almost all physicians trained in Grenada and Dominica have emigrated abroad. Cape Verde, Fiji, Liberia, S\u00e3o Tom\u00e9 and Principe, and St. Lucia are also among the countries with very high emigration rates of physicians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 Refugees and asylum seekers made up 16.3 million, or 8 percent, of international migrants in 2010. The share of refugees in the migrant population was 14.6 percent in low-income countries compared with 2.1 percent in high-income OECD countries. The Middle East and North Africa region had the largest share of refugees and asylum seekers among immigrants (65 percent), followed by South Asia (20 percent), Sub-Saharan Africa (17 percent), and East Asia and Pacific (8.8 percent).<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 In 2010, worldwide remittance flows are estimated to have exceeded $440 billion. From that amount, developing countries received $325 billion, which represents an increase of 6 percent from the 2009 level. The true size, including unrecorded flows through formal and informal channels, is believed to be significantly larger. Recorded remittances in 2009 were nearly three times the amount of official aid and almost as large as foreign direct investment (FDI) flows to developing countries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0\u00a0 In 2010, the top recipient countries of recorded remittances were India, China, Mexico, the Philippines, and France. As a share of GDP , however, smaller countries such as Tajikistan (35 percent), Tonga (28 percent), Lesotho (25 percent), Moldova (31 percent), and Nepal (23 percent) were the largest recipients in 2009.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0\u00a0 High-income countries are the main source of remittances. The United States is by far the largest,\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">with $48 billion in recorded outward fl ows in 2009. Saudi Arabia ranks as the second largest, followed by Switzerland and Russia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 Remittance flows to developing countries proved to be resilient during the recent global financial crisis\u2014they fell only 5.5 percent in 2009 and registered a quick recovery in 2010. By contrast, there was a decline of 40 percent in FDI flows and a 46 percent decline in private debt and portfolio equity flows in 2009.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u00a0 \u00a0 11. Consequences of Migration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Frequent and timely monitoring of migration and remittance trends can provide policy makers, researchers, and the development community with the tools to make informed decisions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Cross-country analysis and evidence from household surveys suggest that migration and remittances reduce poverty in the origin communities. Remittances lead to increased investments in health, education, and small businesses. At the same time, the loss of skills associated with migration can hamper development and delivery of basic services in sending countries. The diaspora of developing countries can be a source of capital, trade, investment, knowledge, and technology transfers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Resilience of Remittance Flows Relative to Other Types of Flows during the Global Financial Crisis Despite a modest decline in remittance in flows to developing countries, these flows have remained more resilient compared with private debt and equity flows and foreign direct investment. There are several reasons for the resilience of remittances in the face of economic downturns in host countries:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Remittances are sent by the cumulated flows of migrants over the years, not only by the new migrants of the past year or two. This makes remittances persistent over time. If new migration stops, then over a period of a decade or so, remittances may stop growing. But they will continue to increase as long as migration flows continue.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Remittances are a small part of migrants\u2019 incomes, and migrants continue to send remittances when affected by income shocks.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Because of a rise in anti-immigration sentiments and tighter border controls in the United States and Europe, the duration of migration appears to have increased. Those migrants staying back are likely to continue to send remittances.<\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">If migrants do indeed return, they are likely to take back accumulated savings. This may have been the case in India during the Gulf war of 1990\u201391, which forced a large number of Indian workers in the Gulf to return home (Ratha 2003, 163). Also the \u201csafe haven\u201d factor, or \u201chome bias,\u201d can cause remittances for investment purposes to return home during an economic downturn in the host country.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u00a0 \u00a0 REMITTANCES<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">\u25a0 Top 10 remittance recipients in 2010 (billions): India ($55.0 bn), China ($51.0 bn), Mexico ($22.6 bn), Philippines ($21.3 bn), France ($15.9 bn), and Germany ($11.6 bn),<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Source \u2013 Migration and Remittances Factbook, 2011.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Abuse and fraud by private recruiters. Intermediaries, or \u201cmiddlemen,\u201d play an important role in facilitating labour migration. The cost of their services, however, can be high. In some cases, migrants find after moving that their contract does not exist, there have been changes to their contract, or there are serious violations related to personal safety and working conditions.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Domestic, bilateral, regional and international migration regimes that may limit regular migration\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">options through quotas and requirements for entry, family mobility, and conversion of status from temporary to permanent despite high demand, particularly for low-skilled and seasonal workers in agriculture, construction, manufacturing and services. As a result, some people may choose more costly, higher-risk options to gain admission or overstay at destination; there may also be cases where irregular migration may be less costly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">As noted by the 2009 global report, migration can have a mixed impact on traditional gender roles in migrant households: \u201cWhen women move, this can change traditional roles, especially those surrounding the care of children and the elderly. When men migrate, rural women can be empowered by their absence: field studies conducted in Ecuador, Ghana, India, Madagascar and Moldova all found that, with male migration, rural women increased their participation in community decision-making.\u201d At the same time, in some households, the burden on women as caretakers may increase, or, when a male migrant returns, traditional norms may come back into place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">One of the more commonly discussed forms of fallout from migration, and a key concern for many source governments, especially for small and less developed states, involves broader changes in workforce composition, or the so-called \u201cbrain-drain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-size: 1em;text-align: initial\">The global report noted that \u201cmobility can have profound consequences for social, class and ethnic hierarchies in origin communities if lower status groups gain access to substantially higher income streams.\u201d In addition to higher income, return migrants and communication networks can transfer ideas and practices back to communities of origin. These \u201csocial\u201d remittances can help spread knowledge in households and across communities on issues related to health, nutrition and hygiene, more empowering gender roles, lower fertility rates, greater educational expectations for girls and female labour force participation. Frequent return visits and\/or collective diaspora and return migrant initiatives can also affect patterns of political and social participation. There can be negative social aspects as well. Mobility can at times serve as a vehicle for the more rapid transmission of HIV and AIDS, for example. The deportation of youth from the United States back to Central America has been linked to the export of gangs and gang cultures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">When migrant skills complement those of locally born workers, both groups may benefit, although the results may be mixed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Rapid urbanization, which is frequently fed by internal migration, can cause challenges for destination communities, as well as migrants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">12. Summary<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">According to the \u201cRecommendations on Statistics of International Migration\u201d by the United Nations Statistics Division (1998), long-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least one year, so that the country of destination effectively becomes their new country of usual residence. Short-term migrants are persons who move to a country other than that of their usual residence for a period of at least three months but less than one year except in cases where the movement to that country is for purposes of recreation, holiday, visits to friends and relatives, business, medical treatment, or religious pilgrimage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Globally, many more people move within borders than across them. Those who move across borders tend to stay in the region of the source country.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Movement can be: within or across borders; voluntary (for work, study or family reasons) or forced (as a result of conflict or natural disasters); regular (with documentation) or irregular (without documentation); and temporary, seasonal or longer term\/permanent.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">In some instances, whole communities may be impelled to move due to conflict or natural disasters. If they remain within national borders, they are referred to as Internally displaced people (IDPs). If they cross international borders, they can become asylum seekers. If asylum is granted under the UN Convention Relating to the Status of Refugees they are known as refugees.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">International migration refers to the movement of people across national borders, whereas internal migration involves the movement of people within borders. In different country contexts, however, and in different languages, the phrase \u201cmigration\u201d can have different meanings. In many countries, several types of movement exist, including internal, emigration, immigration, return, seasonal, transit, regular, irregular and forced.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">According to migration and remittances factbook 2011 more than 215 million people, or 3 percent of the world population, live outside their countries of birth. Current migration flows, relative to population, are weaker than those of the last decades of the nineteenth century.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Cross-country analysis and evidence from household surveys suggest that migration and remittances reduce poverty in the origin communities. Remittances lead to increased investments in health, education, and small businesses. At the same time, the loss of skills associated with migration can hamper development and delivery of basic services in sending countries. The diaspora of developing countries can be a source of capital, trade, investment, knowledge, and technology transfers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Frequent and timely monitoring of migration and remittance trends can provide policy makers, researchers, and the development community with the tools to make informed decisions. Age, gender, ethnicity and socioeconomic circumstances also influence the migration experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>you can view video on Types of migration: trends and consequences<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Or0Yb8VgTQc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120\" src=\"http:\/\/epgpbooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/download.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"36\" height=\"36\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>References<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">2011.
