Migration ist kein neues Phänomen- Menschen hatten schon immer verschiedenste Gründe um in andere Länder für kurze oder längere Zeit zu reisen oder umzusiedeln. Dies erhält aber eine besondere Relevanz, wenn dies zum `Brain Drain` führt. Dies ist die Abwanderung von ausgebildetem Personal, z.B. aus dem Pflegesektor eines Landes, was zu existentiellen Problemen für dieses Land führen kann. In meiner Arbeit habe ich das Beispiel U.K. gewählt, da hierher besonderes viele Pflegekräfte aus gefährdeten Ländern (Südafrika, Simbabwe, Karibik, etc.)emigrieren. Ich werde sowohl auf die Ursachen der Migartion (push and pull factors), als auch auf die Effekte für Geber- und Nehmerländer und Strategien gegen die negativen Folgen eingehen.
