Why Migrate Abroad?

Settling abroad in one of the world’s leading countries is one of the most life-changing things you can do. Some of the biggest reasons people live in abroad are:

  • Better salary and job prospects
  • An enhanced standard of living
  • More stable political environment
  • Vibrant multicultural cities
  • Better healthcare and education
  • Opportunity to bring more members of the family abroad
  • Better life for children
  • Opportunity to bring more members of the family abroad
  • Migration is all about relocating from one place to another. Usually, there might be diverse push and pull factors at work, either working on their own or together.

 

Pull factors – that is, factors that draw a newcomer to a specific country – are primarily social and economic. Economic migration is where an individual moves abroad to find work or for following a carefully laid down career path for themselves.

Social Migration

Social migration, on the other hand, is when an individual relocates overseas for either a better quality of life, or to be closer to family.

Generally, the top three reasons believed to be the motivating factors for migrate overseas are – Increased earning potential, More job opportunities, and Better healthcare and education. 

According to the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), there were an estimated over 232 million international migrants globally. An international migrant is a person living outside the country that they were born in. Crossing borders in search of work, education and new horizons, a migrant is primarily driven by the search for new opportunities and better livelihood.

Top Countries to Migrate
