Beschreibung
This open access book estimates migration and remittances from Odisha and covers various aspects of social and economic development, based on the Odisha Migration Study 2023, a first-of-its-kind survey of 15,000 households and several mixed-methods studies in the state. In Odisha, one of India’s poorest states, migration has emerged as a fundamental feature of social and economic life. Yet, little is known about its characteristics, patterns, and processes.
Bringing together a group of multidisciplinary scholars to study a wide range of issues through the lens of migration, this book covers the areas of education, work and employment, livelihoods and income, access to government programmes, housing and amenities, land and asset ownership, food security, women’s autonomy and mobility, gender health and well-being, and youth aspirations and attitudes towards agriculture.
As the first comprehensive book on Odisha migration, it is of great interest to scholars and researchers of migration studies, development studies, development economics, sociology, demography, public policy, and South Asian studies. It is also useful to policymakers and civil society organisations.
