Human migration is not a new phenomenon. Large-scale and long-distance migrations occurred in the distant past, too. Population migration has had an important role in the structural transformation of economies throughout history, thereby contributing greatly to development in general and human development in particular. Despite the potential of human movement to contribute to human development, barriers to migration persist everywhere. Restrictions to movement, whether within national boundaries or across international borders, have impacts in limiting the potential of human movement to yield positive human development outcomes, in places of both origin and destination. Overcoming barriers is necessary in order to accomplish enhanced human development outcomes.
