Is poverty the main driver of migration or more an obstacle? Do you know which countries host the most refugees? In the lecture, you will learn what myths and misconceptions we have about who are migrants and why they migrate. On the other hand, you will be provided with facts – what migration trends are and how migration affects the development of countries.

This lecture was given by Melissa Siegel, Head of Migration Studies and Head of the Migration and Development Research Section at the Maastricht Graduate School of Governance and UNU-MERIT in the Netherlands, during the 8th EMN Educational Seminar on Migration entitled „Migration in a Multilateral World“ ([ Ссылка ]).

Since 2012, the Seminar is organised by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) Slovakia as the coordinator of the Slovak EMN National Contact Point.

The EMN Slovakia activities are funded by the European Union – the Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund and co-funded by the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic.
