Title: Skilled Migrants in the Middle East: Definitions, Mobility and Integration
Abstract: This paper focuses on skilled migrants moving to and integrating in the Middle East. We provide a series of factors to help conceptualize this heterogeneous group. The paper looks at various types of skilled migration, mobility and integration as well as the challenges that individual migrants have faced. We argue that when thinking about migration and integration, it is important to appreciate multiple scales of analysis. We also highlight that although skilled migrants have confronted a number of migration and integration barriers, many have also experienced additional challenges on the basis of their identity.
