This report examines Ukraine’s significant population decline and emigration, focusing on migration patterns before and after the launch of Russia’s war against Ukraine. It highlights two key migration corridors: the established Ukraine-Poland skill corridor and the emerging Ukraine-Netherlands corridor. The report reveals that Ukrainians in these host countries have high employment rates, especially compared to other refugee groups. Despite this, many employed displaced Ukrainians face significant skill mismatches, working in jobs unrelated to their previous professions in Ukraine. The report underscores the exceptional scale of forced migration due to the war and the ongoing uncertainty surrounding Ukraine’s migration trends.
