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