WHAT IS MIGRATION?
is the movement of people from one place in the
world to another.

TWO TYPES OF MIGRATION

INTERNAL MIGRATION
which refers to people moving from one area to another wihtin one country.

INTERNATIONAL MIGRATION
which people cross borders of one country to another.
THE LATTER CAN BE FURTHER BROKEN DOWN INTO FIVE
GROUPS:
1. First are those who move permanently to another country
(immigrants).
2. The second refers to workers who stay in another country for a
fixed period (at least 6 months in a year).
3. Illegal migrants comprise the third group.
4. The fourth are migrants whose families have "petitioned" them to
move to the destination county.
5. The fifth group are refugees (also known as asylum-seekers), i.e.,
those "unable or unwilling to return.
DOES MIGRATION IMPROVE THE
QUALITY OF LIFE?
Some benefits are fun and exciting, including;
1. Learning a new culture and experiencing new
opportunities.
2. Getting to know a different approach to
communication.
3. Immersing yourself in new cultural activities.
BENEFITS AND DETRIMENTS OF THE
SENDING COUNTRIES
BENEFITS:
1. Payment of Remittances -These significant financial transfers from the
wealthy developed country to the less developed but still developing country
are frequently seen as essential to the latter's economic progress.

2. Workers' Skills -The sending countries benefit from this temporary migration
since the returning workers are more skilled and experienced. Because of the
abilities they have acquired abroad, they can strengthen their domestic economies.

3. Unemployment reduction -Many people work abroad because of


unemployment in their origin country. Hence, unemployment is reduced when
unemployed people find a job in other countries.
BENEFITS AND DETRIMENTS OF THE
SENDING COUNTRIES
DETRIMENTS:
1. Less Workforce - The sending countries workforce decreases when
people of working age leave the country.

2. Loss of highly trained workers - For example, in the Philippines, Nurses are
going abroad because they want to have higher salary.

3. Children left behind -Many parents are going abroad in order to give their
children a better life. But children who are left behind are having a lack of
parental guidance and support.
THE PROBLEM OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING
On top of the issue of brain drain, sending states must likewise protect migrant
workers. The United States Federal Bureau of Investigation lists human
trafficking as the third largest criminal activity worldwide. In 2012, the
International Labour Organization (ILO) identified 21 million men, women, and
children as victims of "forced labor," an appalling three out every 1,000 persons
worldwide. Ninety percent of the victims (18.7) million) are exploited by private
enterprises and entrepreneurs; 22 percent (4.5 million) are sexually abused;
and 68 percent (14.2 million) work under compulsion in agricultural,
manufacturing, infrastructure, and domestic activities.
CAUSES OF HUMAN TRAFICKING
Unemployment
Poverty
Absence of a social safety
Political instability
Status of violence against women and children
The low risk, high profit
INTEGRATION
It is an act of the immigrants to ressemble the culture of the
native-borns of the country they have migrated in. (Waters, M.C.)
Immigrants may contribute significantly to a host nation's GDP, but
their access to housing, healthcare and education is not easy.

TWO-WAY PROCESS OF INTEGRATION


1. Immigrants change because they have to adapt
2. Native-borns change because of the immigrant's influence
Lack of integration increases the tension between the xenophobic (anti-
immigrants) and the migrants by stating that these news citizens does
not have the sense of sharing the dominant culture.

PROBLEMS AND CHALLENGES IN INTEGRATION OF


MIGRANTS:
Harmonious living
Cultural practices
Religious beliefs
Social integration
Discrimination
CONCLUSION
Global migration entails the globalization of people. And
like the broader globalization process, it is uneven. Some
migrants experience their movement as a liberating process.
A highly educated professional may find moving to another
country financially rewarding. At the other end, a victim of
sex trafficking may view the process of migration as
dislocating and disempowering.
