Canadian Involvement in the Brain Drain from Africa: Opportunities for Action
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 13 August 2021
Extract
The phenomenon known as the “brain drain” refers to the permanent or long-term migration of educated or skilled individuals from one country to another, usually from a poor Third World nation to an industrialized Western country. However, it also describes the migration of such persons between developed countries, such as from Canada to the United States and within countries, notably from impoverished rural areas to urban areas.
