HOW CAN BRAIN DRAIN BE STOPPED AND CHANGED INTO SOMETHING BENEFICIAL FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES?, WHAT CAN GOVERNMENTS AND PRIVATE SECTOR DO TO IMPROVE MIGRANT CONDITIONS?

As I have been doing in this blog, there is one question related to the main topic. This time, there are two questions because I consider that both are not only related to each other, but they also have a kind of dependence between them.
I want to start explaining the meaning of brain drain that is a situation that has been increasing in the last years and that happens more inside the developing countries. Brain drain can be seen as a process of migration of people with a lot of knowledge and labour skills, that want to show to everyone what they know, but they can’t perform all of this in their nations because there are not job opportunities for everyone; therefore they look in developed countries the opportunities that they don’t have at home.

For all of the above, we can see that the brain drain is a problem that can be resolved only if the governments create job opportunities and start to think more in their habitants, to give them the standards of life that all the citizens disserve. If this happens, developing countries will beneficiate because all the knowledge and skills of the people who was running away of the countries, will be used to progress and to become a more competitive.
Because few governments create enough opportunities to their citizens, the process of migration of all this “brains” continue and here is where the answer to the second question appear and the big dependence is showed.
Developed countries, are nations that, because of their technology and government structure, are able to offer more chances to those workers that are looking for a jobs but due to the increase in the migrants the offer become so big that some companies take advantage of this by don’t respecting the rights of the employees, they make them work as animals without paying them what they really disserve.
This is the moment where governments and the private sector of the developed countries have to start acting to help migrants by establishing some rules to protect their rights and to prevent the exploitation of all the people that since the beginning have been looking for a better place to live, where they could show all the capacities and abilities that they have obtained by studying hard.
