international migration
Moving between countries
International migration is the movement of people across national borders to live in a different country.
It encompasses both voluntary relocation—for work, education, or family—and forced displacement due to conflict, persecution, or disaster.
International migration has reshaped labor markets worldwide.
The term appears frequently in policy discussions about immigration, refugees, and demographic change.
