Abstract
The article discusses migration, one of the most important and pressing problems in the world. There are 184 million migrants worldwide, of which 43% live in low– and middle–income countries. Migration problems are becoming even more widespread and urgent due to serious differences between and within countries — in terms of real wages, labor market opportunities, demographic characteristics and climate costs.
Migration makes a significant contribution to economic development and poverty reduction, but is also fraught with difficulties and risks. Migrants often bring skills, dynamism and resources that strengthen the economies of destination countries. In many cases, they also strengthen the country of origin by providing a vital mechanism to support communities by sending remittances.
Policies to improve migration flows can help take advantage of economic opportunities and mitigate the difficulties and risks faced by migrants.
