EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY IN
NEPAL
2. WHAT IS EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY?
• Mobility = movement
• Educational mobility = movement of
educated people from less economically
advanced areas to more economically
advanced areas
3. EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY = BRAIN DRAIN
• ‘High-skilled migration from poorer to wealthier
countries, commonly referred to as “brain drain”,
is viewed with significant unease due to the vital
role played by human capital in economic growth
and development processes.’ (Özden & Phillips,
2015)
• ‘The term “Brain drain” is used when highly
trained or qualified workers move from nation of
origin to other nation usually for better pay or
living conditions. Migration of technical personnel
or brain drain is also known as “The human
capital flight”.’ (Baral & Sapkota, 2015)
4. PRESENT SCENARIO OF EDUCATIONAL
MOBILITY IN NEPAL
• Internal mobility from rural areas to the center or capital
• External mobility to other countries (big problem and focus
in this presentation)
• Roughly 1,200 Nepalese leave the country every day
• Estimated 300,000 youth leave Nepal every year
• “This place is always crowded with people wanting to
go abroad,” says Kamala Thapa, a security guard at
the ministry of education. (edusanjal)
5. REASONS FOR EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY
• Career ambitions
• higher living standards
• Better employment opportunities with better income
• Education
• a luring western lifestyle
• stability and security
• “Push” factors (Supply) and “Pull” factors (Demand)
(Baral & Sapkota, 2015)
• Quota and reservations for certain communities
• Pressure from family, friends, colleagues…
6. BRAIN DRAIN OR BRAIN GAIN?
• ‘highly educated workers generate positive
externalities for society and these are
lost when they emigrate’ (Özden & Schiff, 2006)
• ‘the brain drain side of globalization creates
winners and losers’ (Docquier & Rapoport,2011)
7. EFFECTS OF EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY
The Welfare Characteristics of Migrants
o Remittance and reducing poverty
o Improvement in lifestyle
o Education
o Gaining new knowledge and skills
o Compensate for lack of resources
o ‘An educated Diaspora reduce the information
asymmetry between origin and destination
countries, which may favor trade (Gould 1994)
and foreign capital inflow.’ (Cattaneo, 2008)
8. EFFECTS OF EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY
The Spillover Characteristics form Migrant to
Non-Migrant
o Remittance worsening poverty
o Consumption multiplier / consumerism (Cattaneo,
2008)
9. EFFECTS OF EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY
• devastating consequences leading to loss of health
workers in the nation (Baral & Sapkota, 2015)
• Irreplaceable loss of skilled manpower
• Familial ties severed
• Cultural distancing
• Great loss for the country’s investment
10. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO BENEFIT FROM
EDUCATIONAL MOBILITY?
• Creating better and up to date education system
• Providing enough opportunities to the human capital
produced within the nation
• Forming dynamic human resource policies to ensure the
return of the expatriates
11. CONCLUSION
• Educational mobility, esp. to other nations, and the
resultant brain drain is counterproductive to the
nation.
• But if proper human resource policies are formed,
brain drain can be turned in to brain gain.
