Session 5: Migration and well-being: implications for attracting and retaining highly skilled migrants

Lecturer: Julia Reinold

Migration and well-being are linked in various ways. For example, well-being can be a reason for migration and migration can have consequences for the well-being of migrants and those left behind in the country of origin. This lecture sheds light on the complex relationship between migration and well-being, including related concepts such as quality of life, life satisfaction and happiness. Drawing on recent research from the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, the lecture will furthermore highlight the importance of well-being for attracting and retaining highly skilled migrants and discuss the role of policy.
