ORIGIN

The term “BRAIN DRAIN" was coined by the Royal

society to describe the emigration of “scientists and

technologists" to North America from post-war

Europe.

Another source indicates that this term was first

used in the United Kingdom to describe the influx of

Indian scientists and engineers.

TYPES

Organizational:- The flight of talented, creative,

and highly trained employees from large

corporations such as Yahoo, HubSpot and

Microsoft. This occurs when employees perceive

the direction and leadership of the company and

are unable to keep up with their personal and

professional ambitions.

Geographical:- The flight of highly trained

individuals and college graduates from their area of

residence, for instance, those migrating from the

mid-western United States to the coastal states and

large metropolises.

Industrial: - The movement of traditionally skilled

workers from one sector of an industry to another

BRAIN DRAIN: BANE FOR INDIA

REASONS OF BRAIN DRAIN

Lack Of Employment And Low Salary:- Due to

lack of employment and low salary people migrate

as they are tempted to look for better salaries

elsewhere.

Political Instability:- Due to political instability in

home countries, people loose confidence on their

governments and future prospects for a better

life.Migration also takes place in response to wars,

political and social turmoil.

Scholars Expectations Not Met:- Many scholars

who go abroad for further studies remain there

leaving their family and workplace behind with the

hope that a better life can be achieved elsewhere,

despite their well being at home. Expectations are

usually not met as hopped.

CONSEQUENCES OF BRAIN DRAIN

Loss Of Human Capital:- The flaws of Brain Drain

are inherent in its title, it involves the loss of human

capital, i.e. a skilled labour force which is vital to the

development of society and the country.

Provides Personal Benefits:- “Essentially provids

personal benefits for individuals rather than public

benefits”-The brain drain benefits individuals more

than society.

Uneven Distribution Of Knowledge:- Brain Drain

results in uneven distribution of knowledge across

space, resulting in a fall in economic development

for the country.

Loses potential entrepreneurs:- Entrepreneurs

plays an important role in helping a country develop.

The economy of a country that has a large number of

world-class entrepreneurs can be more innovative

than those of others.

Lack Of Health Care Workers:- Health workers from

the developing countries leave and immigrate to the

developed world. As a result countries lack sufficient

health care workers, which harms the local health

system and there is not sufficient manpower to do the

work required, which further damages the health

system rather than strengthening it.

SOLUTIONS TO CURVE THE BRAIN

DRAIN:

Good Governance At The National And International Level:- Transparency in leadership is essential and should be maintained. It is about maintaining reasonable security for peoples' lives and property which is essential for economic progress, Thus withholding political and economical emigrants.

High Wages:- Offering higher wages for `insiders` according to their qualifications is essential, instead of over estimating and hiring expatrates, which are more costly.

Quality Of Education:- Education plays a powerful role especially in the growing problems of international migration. Therefore, offering individuals the necessary education qualifications in their countries and expanding a better educational infrastructure may definitely prevent emigrants who are seeking a higher education abroad.

Taxing Emigrants:- The last alternative measure could be, taxing emigrants who are trained in home countries. This is a sensitive issue and may infringe on the basic human right and freedom to chose the nature and location of individuals where to live and where to work, but can be used to tackle Brain Drain.

PREVENTIVE MEASURES

Different areas and nations have distinct policies to

retain skilled workers due to the different national or

regional situation.--in African countries, the health

systems have been severely affected by brain drain, so

various measures have been suggested and tried to

limit the migration of health workers to rich countries.

China tries to create a normal and free atmosphere

and mechanism that would help talents flourish

And in India, although suffering severe brain drain

every year, the Indian government has not adopted

strict policies because they believe that the overseas

talent will eventually contribute to the nation in the

future.

ADVANTAGES OF THE BRAIN DRAIN

Sending Remittances:- sending back of

remittances increases economic development in

the country and its standard of living.

Circular Migration:- The economy of the origin

country may not be able to take advantage of the

skilled labourers, so it is more beneficial for the

workers to migrate and send back remittances.

Second, when the migrant workers return home as

part of the circular pattern, they may bring with

them new skills and knowledge.

Increase Living Standards:- It increase living

standards in society

“skilled migrants typically earn more therefore

remit more thus fostering growth”.

The remittance economy is a significant part of the

brain drain as well an integral source of income for

developed economies: “2011 remittances were

estimated at $372bn”, and for countries such as

Mexico and the Philippines were worth “$24 and

$34 billion” respectively.

CONCLUSION

In India best crammers are rewarded

But in west who learn how to apply

Skill is awarded…

CONCLUSION

Brain Drain is a very big problem. Our India should be

developed country instead of being a developing one.

There is no doubt we Indians are more talented than

others but due to lack facilities Indians are not able to

show there talents.

According to former Google Ceo Eric Schmidt :

“India’s entrepreneurs have the ability to
