Explore the drivers behind migration, considering factors such as


economic, political, cultural, social, and environmental influences.

General Question: Why do people move/migrate? (a minimum of


three sentences for each aspect)

 Economic factors – People move or migrate to seek better job


opportunities, higher wages, environmental resources and
improve their living standards. For them to have better economic
prosperity or to be financially stable, people move from rural
places to urban areas, or migrate to other countries with
stronger economy. Because people seem to be attracted of the
financial stability of other countries, it makes them want to
relocate to have a better life for themselves and their families.

 Political factors – People choose to migrate from their home


countries to another because of certain conflicts like
discrimination, mistreatment, and lack of political rights or
freedom. People tend to runaway or move because of wars,
dictatorial governments, or areas with political instability in
hopes of finding countries with better security/safety and quality
of life.

 Cultural Factors – People choose to move or migrate because


they want to be in environments where their personal identities
matches and are respected or valued by those around them,
especially when it comes to their believes, practices, religions
and even ethnicity. Cultural migration can also involve
movement from a country to another or to communities or
environments where one's cultural background is respected and
celebrated than discriminated and marginalized. People may
also migrate or move to start a fresh and continue their family’s
cultural heritage in some other places.

 Social Factors – When it comes to social factors, people move or


migrate usually because of marriage, work or education
purposes, and relocation of families to be closer to other
relatives. For educational purposes, students migrate or move
to other places or countries because they got accepted to their
dream schools to study for the course that they want which can
most likely lead to brain drains for some countries.

 Environmental Factors – When it comes to environmental


factors, some people most likely move because of natural causes
like climate change, pollution, environmental degradation and
even being close to disaster risks like living near an active
volcano. People, even if they do not want to move or migrate
from their homes are sometimes forced to because of the
dangers they might face due to their environment. People also
tend to move because their place gets flooded really fast or are
too hot or dry to live in and grow crops to make a living.
