Topic 2.10
How does the concept of brain drain relate to push and pull factors?
Brain drain results from political instability which is purely a push factor.
Brain drain refers only to skilled workers leaving rural areas for urban cities, illustrating internal migration dynamics not related to this topic's focus on international migration trends.
It is solely influenced by higher educational facilities abroad acting as a pull factor without any connection with local conditions back home.
It is caused by lack of opportunities at home (push) and better career prospects abroad (pull).
