Unlocking the Economic Contribution of Returning Refugees to Their Home Countries
Description
The economic perspective on the return of asylum seekers, refugees, and other migrants is an important aspect to consider in the overall debate. Returnees may contribute to the economic progress of their countries of origin through various avenues (Wahba 2022), such as in the reconstruction and development efforts of their home countries, nurturing entrepreneurship, accumulating human capital, facilitating the dissemination of knowledge, promoting aid and remittances, and transferring cultural norms back to the homeland. Returnees can bring back financial resources, whether through savings accumulated abroad or through remittances sent to their families during their stay in host countries (Beaman et al. 2022).
