 ADVANTAGES OF GLOBAL
MIGRATION
POSITIVE IMPACTS ON HOST
COUNTRIES
• Job vacancies and skills gaps can be filled.
• Economic growth can be sustained.
• Services to an ageing population can be maintained when there
are insufficient young people locally.
• The pension gap can be filled by the contributions of new young
workers and they also pay taxes.
• Immigrants bring energy and innovation.
• Host countries are enriched by cultural diversity.
• Failing schools (and those with falling numbers) can be
transformed.
POSITIVE IMPACTS ON
COUNTRIES
• Developing OF ORIGIN
countries benefit from remittances (payments sent
home by migrants). These now often outstrip foreign aid.
• Unemployment is reduced and young migrants enhance their life
prospects
• Returning migrants bring savings, skills and international
contacts.
 DISADVANTAGES OF GLOBAL
MIGRATION
NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON HOST
• DepressionCOUNTRIES
of wages may occur, especially in lower paid jobs.
• Having workers willing to work for relatively low pay may allow
employers to ignore productivity, training and innovation.
• Migrants may be exploited.
• Increases in population can put pressure on public services.
• Unemployment may rise if there are unrestricted numbers of
incomers.
• There may be integration difficulties and friction with local
people.
• Large movements of people lead to more security monitoring.
• Ease of movement may facilitate organised crime and people
trafficking.

NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON
COUNTRIES
• Economic disadvantageOF ORIGIN
through the loss of young workers
• Loss of highly trained people, especially health workers
• Social problems for children left behind or growing up without a
wider family circle
