According to IOM World Migration Report 2020, which was generated by the UN, there are 272 million migrants all over the world. The numbers are approximate but increasing day by day. As the numbers are increasing, the problem gets bigger. These numbers show us the complex nature of immigration. So, why do people migrate? Why are millions of people willing to live in a country that they were not born in? Well, there are several reasons why migrants decide to live in a different country in which they never lived before. Maybe the first reason why people migrate is war. Global conflicts all around the world cause a huge amount of relocation. For example, the Syrian civil war and the war between Ukraine and Russia, have been affecting millions of people and forcing them to relocate to other countries. In this case, migrants who were forced to relocate, run for their lives. Women and children are the most affected and vulnerable group of migrants.

Poverty, ongoing violence, high unemployment rate, elements of social and political pressure, epidemics, natural disasters, and agreements between countries are mentionable as the other immigration causes. For example poverty, lack of supplies, and high unemployment rate makes people unhappy where they live. Fading hopes and unsolved problems cause increased migration year by year. In addition, all immigrants' main aim is to search for a better quality of life.

What are the Problems Created by Migration?

There are huge problems that migration causes. The locals who are the people where immigrants moved to are usually unhappy to embrace immigrants. If there is no cultural affinity, problems get bigger. First of all, it is seen as a threat to the social order. Secondly, housing problems and income injustice are one of the most seen problematic conditions. Cultural conflicts, increased judicial cases, poverty, and inadequate health and education systems are among the problems that affect both the locals and the immigrants. To conclude, we can say that the countries which immigrants go to are suffering huge problems with education, health, security, housing, etc.

Why is Migrant Management Needed?

With an effective migrant management system, immigrants are recorded through biometric data. This biometric data can be a fingerprint, palmprint, iris, or face image. So that, institutions can know who is who. With an effective migration management system, it is ensured that the right people can benefit from the aid provided by the state. On the other hand, it is very important to record biometric data to utilize immigrants in areas like health, education, housing, and job applications. It also becomes possible for a qualified workforce to enter the country. When a public order problem occurs, it becomes easier to find the person concerned.
