Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The migration of labor from rural to urban areas is an important part of the urbanization process in developing countries. Even though it has been the focus of abundant research over the past five decades, some key policy questions have not found clear answers yet. To what extent is internal migration a desirable phenomenon and under what circumstances? Should governments intervene and, if so, with what types of interventions? What should be their policy objectives? To shed light on these important issues, the authors survey the existing theoretical models and their conflicting policy implications and discuss the policies that may be justified based on recent relevant empirical studies. A key limitation is that much of the empirical literature does not provide structural tests of the theoretical models, but only provides partial findings that can support or invalidate intuitions and in that sense, support or invalidate the policy implications of the models. The authors' broad assessment of the literature is that migration can be beneficial or at least be turned into a beneficial phenomenon so that in general migration restrictions are not desirable. They also identify some data issues and research topics which merit further investigation. "--World Bank web site.

Download or read book Internal Migration in the Countries of Asia written by Martin Bell and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how population mobility varies among the countries of Asia. While much attention has been given to international migration, movement within countries is numerically much more significant. Coupling innovative methods developed in the global IMAGE project with the contextual knowledge of experts on 15 Asian countries, the book measures and explains how people across Asia differ in the probability of changing residence, the ages at which they move, and the impact of these migrations on the distribution of human settlement within each country. It demonstrates how stage of economic development, coupled with historical events, local contingencies, cultural norms, political frameworks, and the physical environment shape human migration. By using rigorous statistics in a robust comparative framework, this book provides a clear understanding of contemporary migration in Asia for students and academics, and a valuable resource for policy-makers and planners in Asia and beyond.

This book was released on 2012-03 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bangladesh is over populated country in the world. Every day a lot of rural people come to urban area for many reasons. Rural people are mostly dependent on urban area because the government always pays a narrow role for rural area. In this situation, the study mainly focused on the real factors of rural-urban migration. The major concentration were identified the characteristics of migrants, the factors of rural-urban migration or causes and consequences of this migration and what can be the possible solution to manage this situation. The present study reveals that the process of migration in Bangladesh is strongly influenced by both the push and the pull factors, of which the principal push factor is the situation of insufficient job prospects in the villages, while the perception of the higher probability of getting employment and earning higher income in the cities is the predominant pull factor. From the analysis it is clear that unless the gap between urban and rural areas in terms of the quality of life and and living conditions can be systematically narrowed down, the commended solution cannot be achieved. The Government will be the main role player to manage this.

Download or read book Land Use Change in Thimphu, Bhutan from 1990-2007 written by Mayur Arvind Gosai and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Secluded in the foothills of the Himalayas between China and India, Bhutan is still subject to many of the same problems facing other developing nations. Environmental degradation is one of these challenging problems, especially due to modernization pressures from urban population growth and economic pressures to generate jobs to accommodate the incoming population. Rural-urban migration analysis is completed by a Geographic Information Systems (GIS) analysis of various 2005 Bhutan census variables from the Population and Housing Census of Bhutan (PHCB). The areas of highest in and out-migration are located, then variables identified as potential push and pull factors for migration (such as health and education) are analyzed. The specific area of interest for this study is Thimphu, the capital of Bhutan. The primary goal of this research is to identify discrepancies in the national forest inventory and recommend appropriate methodology for using Remote Sensing (RS) and GIS to quantify the amount of forest cover. Political ecology studies show that structural adjustment programs such as land privatization, decentralization, and blueprint based environmental planning exert major impacts on agriculture and land use. In Bhutan, land privatization and decentralization of various administrative boundaries have already caused significant changes to policy regarding forestland in the past two decades. These political and economic impacts affect forest policies in terms of accessibility, control, and management. The land use land cover change was determined using unsupervised classifications, coupled with a post-classification change detection technique, to obtain quantitative change information from Landsat images taken at three different points in time (1990, 1999, and 2007). These techniques were applied at various scales including the city scale and two administrative boundary scales (Dzongkhag and Gewog). Remote Sensing analysis shows that at the city and geog levels, urban area is increasing, while forested area is decreasing. At the dzongkhag level, however, there was an increase in forested areas. The GIS migration analysis shows that Thimphu dzongkhag has received the highest in-migration, while Trashigang dzongkhag has the highest out-migration. Analysis of the various push variables shows that access to certain amenities, such as health care, electricity, and roads, are major reasons to immigrate to Thimphu dzongkhag. The national government has enacted several policies and programs in an effort to reduce rural-urban migration and to maintain a sustainable forest cover, such as the rural-electrification project and promotion of Nonwooded Forest Products (NWFP), but these policies and programs did not make a significant impact on either of the intended targets. The research finds that GIS and RS are useful tools for analyzing the impact of political, social, and economic modernization pressures on the physical environment."--Abstract from author supplied metadata.

Download or read book Leveraging Urbanization in South Asia written by Peter Ellis and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2015-11-13 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of people in South Asia's cities rose by 130 million between 2000 and 2011--more than the entire population of Japan. This was linked to an improvement in productivity and a reduction in the incidence of extreme poverty. But the region's cities have struggled to cope with the pressure of population growth on land, housing, infrastructure, basic services, and the environment. As a result, urbanization in South Asia remains underleveraged in its ability to deliver widespread improvements in both prosperity and livability. Leveraging Urbanization in South Asia is about the state of South Asia's urbanization and the market and policy failures that have taken the region’s urban areas to where they are today--and the hard policy actions needed if the region’s cities are to leverage urbanization better. This publication provides original empirical and diagnostic analysis of urbanization and related economic trends in the region. It also discusses in detail the key policy areas, the most fundamental being urban governance and finance, where actions must be taken to make cities more prosperous and livable.

Book excerpt: Families, communities and societies influence children's learning and development in many ways. This is the first handbook devoted to the understanding of the nature of environments in child development. Utilizing Urie Bronfenbrenner's idea of embedded environments, this volume looks at environments from the immediate environment of the family (including fathers, siblings, grandparents and day-care personnel) to the larger environment including schools, neighborhoods, geographic regions, countries and cultures. Understanding these embedded environments and the ways in which they interact is necessary to understand development.

Download or read book Education in Bhutan written by Matthew J. Schuelka and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-16 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bhutan is a country in the Himalayas with a relatively new education system and a unique governmental philosophy known as Gross National Happiness. This book explores the history, culture, challenges, and opportunities of schooling in Bhutan. It discusses topics including historical perspectives on Buddhist monastic education, the regional and international influence on educational development, traditional medical education, higher education, and the evolution of Bhutanese educational policy, to name but a few. It also investigates contemporary challenges to schooling in Bhutan such as adult education, inclusive education, early childhood education, rurality, and gender. Throughout the book, the developmental philosophy of Gross National Happiness is explored as a novel and culturally vital approach to education in Bhutan. The majority of the authors are prominent Bhutanese scholars and educational leaders, with select non-Bhutanese international scholars with strong links to Bhutan also contributing. This book is a valuable resource not only for those specifically interested in education in Bhutan, but for anyone with an interest in South Asian studies, general Asian studies, educational development, comparative education, Buddhist education, and the Gross National Happiness development philosophy.

Download or read book Migration and Mental Health written by Dinesh Bhugra and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-02 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Human migration is a global phenomenon and is on the increase. It occurs as a result of 'push' factors (asylum, natural disaster), or as a result of 'pull' factors (seeking economic or educational improvement). Whatever the cause of the relocation, the outcome requires individuals to adjust to their new surroundings and cope with the stresses involved, and as a result, there is considerable potential for disruption to mental health. This volume explores all aspects of migration, on all scales, and its effect on mental health. It covers migration in the widest sense and does not limit itself to refugee studies. It covers issues specific to the elderly and the young, as well as providing practical tips for clinicians on how to improve their own cultural competence in the work setting. The book will be of interest to all mental health professionals and those involved in establishing health and social policy.
