About this book

Unlocking Opportunities: How Migration Can Reduce Poverty in Developing Nations

Migration and Poverty explores the intricate link between migration and poverty reduction in developing countries. Through case studies from Tanzania, Nepal, Albania, and Nicaragua, this research from the World Bank reveals how migration can offer a path out of poverty.

However, the opportunities are not equally distributed. The book highlights the challenges faced by poor migrants, including limited access to lucrative destinations and high migration costs. Discover how governments can implement pro-poor policies to maximize the benefits of migration, reduce inequality, and foster economic development. This book is essential for researchers, policymakers, and anyone seeking insightful analysis and actionable strategies to harness the power of migration for poverty alleviation.
