Migration Skill Corridors

Focusing on the concept of Migration Skill Corridors, this paper explores the dynamic relationship that exists between countries of origin and destination countries. It points to corridors as places/routes of circulation that may function in both directions. The corridor concept allows for studying pre-existing ties and institutional structures that affect the movement. The paper emphasizes the importance of understanding the socio-economic and institutional factors that shape these corridors and provides an analysis of the interaction between migration, skills, and labor market dynamics

The Link4Skills project introduces the concept of Migration Skill Corridors as an analytical tool to explore the interdependent relationships between origin and destination countries. Migration Skill Corridors emphasize the circular and multi-step nature of migration, capturing flows that address skill shortages at destinations and contribute to skill development at origins.
