Скачать или смотреть Migration in Odisha | Liby Johnson

Migration in Odisha is often seen only through the lens of distress. But there is another side, where people move in search of better wages, opportunities, and aspirations for their families.

In this explainer, Liby Johnson from Gram Vikas reflects on migration not just as crisis, but as a force that brings both benefits and costs:
Remittances that improve education, healthcare, housing, and local economic development.
Skills and investments that return with migrants, transforming villages.
Costs for families left behind - children, women, and the elderly bearing extra burdens.
Social impacts when migration reshapes community life.

He urges us to see migration in its full complexity - not only as distress but also as agency, aspiration, and challenge for households and communities.
