Challenges Facing Migration from One Country to Another Human Migration is the movement of people from one geographical area to another with intentions of settling permanently in the new location. The movement is often over long distances such as from one country to another. Factors influencing migration and population movements are socio-political, economic, and ecological factors. The main forces driving migration are rising communal violence worldwide. Often, ethnic or religious intolerance has led to increased levels of immigration. Many young people are dreaming of leaving their home countries in search of a better future for their families and loved ones. They are yearning for the pull factors such as new technology, greater opportunities, better facilities, and increased wealth.

They move to other countries in search of opportunities that can better their lives. While others move willingly, others have no option other than seeking refuge in other countries. Settling down in new countries has proved to be difficult due to being unfamiliar with the law and activities in the new environment. Immigrants face many challenges while trying to adapt to the changes in the new countries.

Despite the challenges, they do not give up; they are ready to toil and sweat to make ends meet.

    The Migration and Culture class field trip to Nogales Mexico was an educational trip. It served to give the students a greater understanding of other cultures and the migration issues that affect them. The mere sight of Nogales makes it easy to see the disorganization. The terrain and apparent lack of city planning makes the thought of reorganization a daunting task. The many houses that rest precariously on the hillsides are densely packed. The poverty is striking and the businesses, houses and lack of services are the obvious signs.

  • Ignorance in the Immigration Debate

    1439 Words  | 3 Pages

    I would like to first address the ignorance and misinterpretations on the part of the non-migrants. First, and most important to me, is the idea that immigrants are all "tired and poor" (Clark). The truth is that, yes, some immigrants are tired and poor. But anyone would be tired and poor if they were subject to the conditions of these people. And many immigrants are not poor at all. Clark also points out, "witness the 12.000 Chinese technicians working in Silicon Valley computer firms or the well-heeled Iranian expatriots so visible in Beverly Hills." It’s also important to realize that many migrants were well off in their own countries, and had to start at the bottom of the ladder once here. Perhaps it is us that make them tired and poor. For example, In Cathy A. Small’s Voyages, the very first paragraph tells about a teacher in Tonga, who will go to the United States to only find work as a maid. Tired and poor is not the same thing as lazy and looking for a free ride.

    Immigrants leave their countries in search for a better life and improvement of their situation. There is no singular reason for immigration; motivations range from better economic prospects to political safety. As of late, the number of immigrants living in the United States is an estimated 11 million. Those who immigrate are expected to contribute to the United States culturally, politically, and economically. Yet, full assimilation becomes difficult to achieve when the immigrant is made into “the other” by the country of reception.

  • Migration And Poverty Case Study

    707 Words  | 2 Pages

    Both qualitative and quantitative studies on migration and poverty suggest that migration is selective with respect to income and earning capacity. Fitchen (1995) and Lichter et al. (2010) examined the role that migration plays in the relationship between poor people and poor places. Fitchen’s (1995) study described an eastern New York town experiencing increasing welfare caseloads and urban exodus. Vacated buildings and storefronts in the downtown were bought up by out-of-town investors, subdivided into multi-dwelling apartment buildings, and leased to low-income residents. Fitchen further described a trend of progressive movement, where people were displaced to less urban areas, resulting in a process of migration to rural areas that
