Does education stimulate rural-urban migration? how does it effect on international migration? Why?
Answers
Answer:
Education can help young migrants integrate into society, learn the local language and develop the skills they will need for the adult world. Unfortunately, their track record in schooling is mixed – some do exceptionally well but others encounter problems that can hold them back throughout life.
Answer:
Yes, throughout history, education has been a key driver for stimulating rural-urban migration. Several schools in urban centres have hosted hostels for students from the rural areas. One Malaysian cartoonist known as Lat grew up in a Malay village but moved to Ipoh to do his secondary education. This story is recounted in the autobiographical graphic novel Lat.
Interestingly, my Mum who grew up and lived in Georgetown, Penang for a good part of her childhood spent part of her primary education in a town in Kedah called Sungai Petani because there were enough places in her convent school. Her education would be an example of reverse rural-urban migration. She regarded those years as some of the happiest in her life.
To answer your question, most economic and educational activities tend to be concentrated in urban centres particularly higher education. In many countries, most rural areas would have early childhood, primary, and secondary education. However, tertiary education providers would tend to be concentrated in urban areas due to the practicality of conducting research and laboratories. Some higher education providers do have smaller satellite campuses in smaller towns to service rural communities but these provide a limited range of courses.
