International migration is skill-selective, which means that the propensity to emigrate is much higher for the high-skilled than for the low-skilled. While the emigration of talent can deprive migrant-sending countries of essential resources for sustainable development, migration prospects induce a beneficial additional skill accumulation in the vast majority of countries of origin. The emigration of talent triggers various positive feedback mechanisms that can foster economic and human development in countries of origin and reduce global inequality. Migration policy frameworks should focus on the multiple channels of development to ensure that migration provides mutual benefits for countries of origin and destination.
