Migration from Nepal is not a new phenomenon, but it has been on the increase in recent years, with the majority of flows consisting of low-skilled migrants moving to Malaysia or the Middle East for temporary work contracts in such fields as construction and domestic work.
To look at migration and development within the Nepali context, this study investigates the complexities between the two dynamics by drawing on the analysis of the findings from remittance-receiving households, returnee migrants, mapping of global good practices, and relevant stakeholders.
