N2  - International migration – especially of high-skilled, high-educated people – is on the rise. Accordingly, academic scholars have made efforts and great progress in better understanding the patterns of migration flows across countries and their composition and characteristics – for instance, skills and gender composition. In a similar vein, governments in high-income countries have become increasingly aware of the importance of attracting skilled labor abroad to tackle skills’ shortages and scant entrepreneurial talent. Indeed, research has documented that high-skilled immigrants make a strong contribution to their host economies (see Chapter 6). As a result, many governments have introduced selective immigration policies to increase the inward flows of knowledge workers. On their side, many sending economies – not necessarily only developing countries (EU and OECD 2016) – are struggling to retain their highly trained human capital. Further evidence on what attracts and retains knowledge workers is therefore required.
