migration networks

Migration networks refer to the social and economic connections that develop between migrants and their home and host countries. These networks consist of relationships among individuals, families, and communities that enable the flow of information, resources, and support. When people migrate, they often rely on these networks for assistance in finding jobs, housing, and navigating new environments. Migration networks can enhance the decision-making process for potential migrants and can lead to the persistence of migration patterns, as established communities attract new members from their regions of origin.
