UN Report ‘Making Migration Work for All’ has revealed that 3.4% of world’s population is immigrants. It is the result of 49% growth in the population of immigrants after 2000. These immigrants spend 85% of their incomes in the nation to which they have immigrated. They have also sent 600 billion dollars as remittances to their home nation, reveals the report of the UN.
The report of the UN has also expressed concerns over the intolerant political policies for immigration by certain nations. It elaborates that uneven immigration has become a severe issue owing to big movement of individuals in diverse regions of the world.
There is clear proof to demonstrate that notwithstanding several real issues, immigration benefits economically and socially both the host and home nations. It is our utmost responsibility to enhance the opportunities that immigration offers to everyone, says the report.
The report of the UN offers the vision of the Secretary-General of the UN António Guterres’s that seeks constructive global cooperation. It also analyzes how immigration can be managed in a better way. It is estimated by the report that there are 258 million overseas immigrants.
The ‘Making Migration Work for All’ report of the UN clearly emphasizes that immigration offers economic and social benefits to both host nations and the immigrants.
