Lecture and Discussion with Michael Clemens, Center for Global Development, and Toman Omar Mahmoud, Kiel Institute for the World Economy.
International migration provides a great opportunity for families in developing countries to escape poverty. Incomes earned abroad are typically much higher than at home allowing migrants support those who stay behind through remittances. What happens to migrants and their families when the migrant moves abroad? What does it mean for development at large? Which policies can rich countries adopt to increase the development dividend of migration?

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
