520 Migration has assumed growing significance in the global
development agenda as its potential for economic and
social development is increasingly acknowledged. Within
the Africa context, perceptions of migration as a negative
phenomenon have shifted to recognition of its central role
to Africa's transformation. Despite this shift, emerging
migration dynamics have not been adequately contextualized
and conceptualized, making it difficult to integrate
migration into development planning processes. This book
attempts to fill the gaps in migration knowledge
production, particularly from the perspectives of
researchers in the global south and more specifically from
Ghana. The chapters provide multi disciplinary
perspectives in the contemporary migration landscape in
Ghana and Africa. Rather than focus on migration as a
problem to be solved, the chapters explore migration as an
intrinsic part of the broader processes of structural
change in Ghana, which could create opportunities for
development if properly harnessed. This reader is an
essential resource for migration and development
researchers, students, policy makers, practitioners and
others interested in the field of development.
