ABSTRACT
The goal of this study is to investigate the international migration driver: social,
political, and environmental impact. There has been, there is now, and there will
continue to be a significant and profound link between changes in the environment and
migration that occurs both inside countries and beyond national borders. These
linkages have occurred in the past, continue to exist in the present, and will continue
to do so in the future. The literature on policy has looked at the danger that
environmental shifts and possible responses to such shifts, such as migration, pose to
governance systems. According to the tone and storyline of the vast majority of news
coverage in the principal destination nations of the globe, migration is not simply a
worldwide disturbance to governance systems that has to be "managed." The
qualitative research methods that were used in this investigation centered on doing indepth analyses of information and data that did not have a quantitative component to
them. These methods of inquiry also investigate how individuals might interpret the
experiences, events, and emotions that have significance in their lives. The number of
individuals that migrate into and out of Nigeria and Liberia will also be a key focus of
this study's secondary data, which was acquired from a variety of sources. This
information was gathered in preparation for this investigation. As a direct result of
globalization, governments no longer place as many restrictions on the free movement
of people, monetary resources, and services. But migration is an extra political issue
that borders produce, and it causes a lot of political disturbance in prosperous
democracies. Borders create this problem by separating people. Food insecurity is still
a significant problem in a number of other developing nations, including Liberia; this
is one of the primary factors that contribute to population movement. Migration across
international borders is a challenging process that ultimately leads to population
transfers between nations and has social and economic ramifications as a result of these
population shifts. The fact that less developed nations are seeing a quick growth in the
number of people competing for work on their own labor markets is one of the primary
causes. On the other hand, more developed countries are facing major challenges such
as an increasing older population and a sudden decline in the size of their domestic
employment markets. This is one of the important factors.
