Refugee migration and local economic development in Eastern Zambia

Auteur :
BLACK, R.

Description :
This article examines the local socio-economic impact of the arrival of Mozambican refugees in the Eastern Province of Zambia. It is suggested that an appropriate framework from which to analyze the impact of refugees is to focus separately on the effects of population increase on the one hand, and the specific characteristics of refugees on the other. A model is developed of potential beneficial changes resulting from the refugees. Policies are designed to promote local economic development.
