IMPACT OF MIGRATION|


When folks move from one place to another they have to do adjustments in their personal and socio-cultural lives. We cannot say that movement is beneficial or hazardous. The advantages and disadvantages of movement in the form of migration are not proportioned. Still, the impact of migration is seen in different areas of the life of an individual, as well as for society.

Demographic Impact:  Migration has different kinds of demographic impacts on the migrated populations. The first and foremost impact is on the equilibrium of the populace, that likely to be shrivelled if in bulk the younger generation starts to be migrated. Migration reduces the sex ratio of the population. Obviously, the nonexistence of particular gender from the nation increases the proportion of other groups e.g. if males of a particular nation/state start migrating to other nations/states then it increased the woman sex ratio. Social relations like marriages are also controlled due to migration.

Economic Impact: As the economy is the backbone of every nation. Migrations have both positive and negative impacts on the economy of a nation. For sending countries the fleeting financial advantage of displacement is found in the settlement. The monetary impacts of movement for both sending and getting countries may likewise differ contingent upon who is moving particularly regarding vagrant works ability levels. In the perspective of Swedish Professor Traynor (2010) movement isn't an issue: inconvenience is coordination, especially in the process of giving birth advertise. In the event that there is non-accessibility of occupations then the outcomes are detachment, lodging issues and estranged urban areas.

Social Impact: Like in other necessary components of life, migration also leaves its impact on the social life of the population. After migrating to new society people learn new values and begin their life in a fresh way.  If the migration is voluntary and for purpose of earnings it has a positive outcome for society. It raises their living standard as well as economic condition. But another scenario is that many people have learned the habit of gambling and drinking when they move toward another nation or society. These types of changes are common in return migrants. Migration also brings some family problems as some family heads and members do not return back to their society for some time or maybe forever. Their absence for a long time generates social-psychological anxiety in other members. The impact of migration is also found in family relations: marriage break-ups, breakage of the joint family system, the decline of culture and moral values are some negative consequences of migration.

Impact on Health:

Migration also affects the health of an individual either it is physical, or it is emotional or psychological. Relocation may impact chance observation and hazard conduct. Feeling of misfortune and psycho-social issues identified with bringing down social positions, the minority may prompt a sentiment absence of an association between current hazard conduct and future well-being impacts. People who relocate for work and money related open doors may cause a 'Cerebrum Drain' in their local nation. Cerebrum Drain is the procedure by which a country loses its most savvy and capable labourers to different nations through movement. This especially influences social insurance in light of the fact that there are frequently monetary impetuses for human services experts to move. The impact of movement on the emotional wellness of people relies upon the extent of strains in the beneficiary nation and can be interceded by the vagrant's social assets. Low-level labourers who moved to different places looking for work, frequently dwelling in ghetto territories as they are not monetarily solid. In ghetto regions, they are more inclined to physical ailments like Tuberculosis, Malaria and numerous other life-taking illnesses.

Psychological Impact:

The hardest thing for migrants is to cope with the loss of family, friends and other peer groups. It causes empty longing which is very difficult to relieve and it leads to depression. If the results of migration are not fruitful, it generates anxiety, stress, and many personalities and mental health disorders. Many times, lack of attentiveness, complications in adjusting to the new environment, cultural disparities and adverse experiences would cause distress to migrants. Odegaard in 1932 conducted research to know the connection of migration with the mental health of migrants. In his research, he found that the people who migrated had genetically predisposed psychosis and later they developed Schizophrenia. It is clear from this research that migration is precipitating factor for mental illness.
