Täältä ne ammentaa sitä tietoa - UNRIC, IOM, UNHCR, UNDP and OHCHR

[Gunnar Hymén]

mä olen miettinyt, mistä ne vetää näitä mamut on voimavara -juttuja. nyt löysin IOMin sivuilta "myths debunked" -sivun. tämä ei varmaan ole monelle uutinen / uutta, mutta ajattelin postata kuitenniin.

Is Migration good for the European economy and economies in origin countries?

The proven reality is that migration brings benefits, fuelling growth, innovation and entrepreneurship in both the countries people come from, and in those they move to, if managed smartly.  Migrants and refugees contribute to the economy both as employees and as entrepreneurs, creating new firms and businesses. Migrant and refugee integration into labour markets and societies can be expensive at first, but is an investment with high return.  Moreover, migrants contribute to their home countries through money sent back home:  remittances now make up three times as much as Official Development Assistance and help foster growth, develop communities and increase access to schooling and health care.  Migrants act as bridges between two places, transferring knowledge and skills, all of which can contribute to their home communities.
