Rural Urban Migration Questions
The role of conflict in rural-urban migration is significant. Conflict, whether it is political, social, or economic, often acts as a push factor for individuals to leave rural areas and migrate to urban areas. In regions experiencing conflict, rural communities may face violence, insecurity, and limited access to basic services such as healthcare, education, and employment opportunities. These conditions can force individuals to seek safety, stability, and better prospects in urban areas. Conflict can also disrupt agricultural activities and livelihoods in rural areas, further exacerbating the push factors for migration.
