Abstract:   (18792 Views)
It seems, skilled workers migration from developing country have negative effects on their economy. Developing countries need their skilled workers to reach their developing goals. As shown in some studies, migrants reduced poverty in their origin countries through creation of positive feedback effects especially by sending remittance from developed countries. Therefore in order to evaluate the effect of brain drain on poverty of their countries, the panel data of 32 developing countries during 1991-2004 have been examined by a panel data regression model. The results showed that the effect of brain drain on poverty is not a significant one. The economic characteristics and behavior of individuals receiving remittances have important roles in the impact of brain drain on poverty in origin countries. In addition the amount of remittances is not enough to compensate the negative effects caused by the lack of skilled workers
Keywords: International Migration, Skilled Worker, Poverty.
