“…Nurse migration is becoming a dominant part of the pattern of international migration (Moyce et al, 2016) and negative consequences are frequently described (e.g., push-and-pull factors). However, recent studies have emphasized the positive effects of highly skilled emigration and they have shown that the option to emigrate incentivizes people to invest in their education (Walerych, 2020), as was noted by the participants in our study. In relation to these findings, it is not the case that everyone who invests in education emigrates, which implies that the possibility of emigration has a positive impact on nurse professionalization in the home country.…”

Globally, Philippine-educated nurses have made vital contributions to health care; however, there is a lack of in-depth knowledge about emigrating nurses’ initial motives to become nurses, their educational experience and their transition in the host country’s health care context. This research aimed to explore Philippine-educated nurses’ educational experience in their home country and their expectations of competence in Norway. The study utilized an explorative design consisting of qualitative interviews with 10 Filipino nurses. A hermeneutic approach was used to analyze and interpret the empirical material. The findings and interpretations underline that Philippine-educated nurses mainly are externally motivated; their educational program is very demanding, but their level of competence does not meet the competence expected in the host country. Although these nurses lack training in elderly care, the Philippine nursing curriculum emphasizes patient care and mastery of basic nursing skills, which are qualities that should be valued and utilized in host countries.

“…The effects of migrations on demographics, labor markets, inequalities, public finances, wellbeing or long-term growth prospects are important for the country of origin as well as for the host countries (Walerych, 2020). The number of studies analyzing economic effects of migration in terms of origin countries is more limited.…”

The relationship between migration and economic growth has long been a matter of discussion in theoretical and empirical domains. Previous studies which explored the link between variables suggested an estimation for an unchanging parameter. Despite that; prevailing economic and political circumstances, effective contracts and agreements, implemented policies, ongoing crises or shocks can cause a shift in the relationship across variables in due course. This study analyses the relationship between emigration and economic growth in transition economies in Europe for the period between 1995-2019 by administering time-varying causality test. Findings obtained from the bootstrap panel causality test suggest that there is a bidirectional causality relationship between emigration and economic growth only in Estonia but results of bootstrap panel rolling window causality analysis reveal that for the subperiods, there exist hidden causal relationships within Hungary, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia and Slovenia.

The article examines the impact of international labor migration on the socio-economic development of Ukraine. The theoretical aspect of the concept of «international labor migration» is clarified and the main components of the phenomenon of international labor migration are substantiated. The factors causing the emergence and continuation of international labor migration were analyzed and systematized. The number of Ukrainian workers abroad was analyzed and their dynamics m.shkurat@donnu.edu.ua during a certain period were studied. The factors that activate migration processes in Ukraine have been identified. Statistical data on the dynamics of migrant workers' remittances and their impact on the country's economy are provided. The main aspects that are affected by remittances of labor migrants have been identified and analyzed. A study of the impact of international labor migration on the economic progress of the country was conducted, as well as the positive and negative consequences of the outflow of skilled labor from Ukraine were assessed. Labor migration in Ukraine was marked by a decrease in social tension in society. It was found that monetary transfers helped to increase the country's exchange rate and increase the solvency of specific groups of citizens, which encouraged the development of the internal market of goods and services. Migrant workers also contributed to cultural exchange between countries, spreading knowledge about Ukraine and filling it with new cultural elements. However, labor migration also has negative consequences for Ukraine, as the country becomes dependent on remittances from labor migrants. The decrease in the number of young people in the country also negatively affected the filling of the pension fund due to their departure abroad. In addition, the loss of highly qualified personnel, known as the «brain drain», when scientists and specialists go abroad, leads to a shortage of skilled labor in Ukraine. It was concluded that despite certain negative consequences of international labor migration for Ukraine, it plays a significant role in the socio-economic development of the state in modern conditions, providing additional financial resources and promoting the employment of the population. However, it is necessary to find ways to stimulate the domestic economy and create decent jobs in Ukraine to reduce dependence on remittances.
