The growth of migration

Migration is the movement of people from one place to another. Migration can
be international when people move from one country or internal when people

move from one area to another in the same country. It occurs often from rural to

urban areas. People migrate for many reasons like economic and social factors.

One effect of migration growth is the economy. This factor is due to the poverty

and the low incomes. Therefore, the population tries to search for a job because in

their home countries the work is not profitable or simply scarce. For example,

Ecuador is a country with great natural resources but the Government does not

have the opportunity to take profit of them because it does not have the machinery

or money to continue with some project.

Another effect of migration growth is the social problem. People that travel to

another country is because they need money to support their families. So, they can

improve their standard of living in order to have a better education, healthcare, etc.

Also, people migrate to another country for safety because in their countries there

are wars and violence. For example, Syria is a country where there is war, so

hundreds of people die every day.

In conclusion, Migration is a global phenomenon that has several factors that

influence it like the economy of the country and the social environment.
