Global migration refers to people moving to live in foreign countries, often for work. It is a protected human right for people to freely move and migrate. There are many reasons why people migrate globally, including seeking job opportunities, reuniting families, fleeing from situations of injustice and war. The push-pull factors also influence migration - push factors relate to conditions that force people to leave their home country, like lack of jobs or conflict, while pull factors are benefits of opportunities in the destination country that attract migrants, such as potential for a successful career. Migrating can improve quality of life by providing new experiences and opportunities not previously available.
