Migrasjon

Migrasjon, or migration in English, refers to the movement of individuals or groups from one place to another, typically involving a change of residence. It can occur within a country (internal migration) or between countries (international migration). This movement can be voluntary, as in the case of individuals seeking better economic opportunities or improved living conditions, or involuntary, such as in situations of refugees fleeing conflict, persecution, or natural disasters. Migration processes can be influenced by various factors, including economic, social, political, environmental, and cultural dynamics. The impact of migration is significant, affecting both the regions of origin and destination, as it can lead to demographic changes, cultural exchange, and economic development while also presenting challenges such as integration and social cohesion.
